Cleaning

We had an issue with our first room and the management moved us to a new room and the difference was almost night and day. However, the cleaning was very minimal and it showed. They basically only made the bed, changed towels and replenished soap, shampoo, and coffee some days. They never swept, mopped or vacuumed and didn't clean the toilet.

Disappointed

The hotel was older but looked to be remodeled. The biggest issue we had was that we booked it because it had a pool and we went for the 4th of July weekend. However, the pool was closed/broken/whatever. We were extremely disappointed. Also, the coffee pot had old, used coffee still in it and there were empty water bottles in the room. It really made me question the cleanliness of the room.

Dirty rooms and very poor customer service

Upon arriving I woke up the person at the front desk. I was told that I would need to come back later to receive my room assignment, even though it was well after the 3 pm check in time. I explained this, then the employee said they didn't know where I was supposed to go and I needed to wait for the cleaning person to finish. I suggested we try finding them or calling them, to which the front desk attendant offered me a room key for Room 101. I was told I could look at the room and, if it was clean, I could take it. The room smelled like an ashtray immediately upon opening the door so I returned to the front desk. After some more coaxing, the person working the desk called the cleaning person and assigned me a different room- 109. The room smelled of stale cigarette smoke, there were visible splotches of something white in and around the sink, the toilet had some mysterious purple goo on it, and the bed sheets had burn holes from cigarettes and stains on them. The room felt like it hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. I think the "cleaning" consisted of making sure the bed was clean and that there was a sample of soap on the counter, next to the sink. I returned to the front desk, but there wasn't anyone at the front desk who could help rectify the situation. I wound up purchasing Lysol to clean high touch surfaces. To top things off, the walls are quite thin. You can hear the traffic and trains going by next to the motel along with snoring patrons in other rooms.
