I'm not sure how this location got such good reviews. When you pull up to the property it truly looks like it's condemned and ready for demolition. Half of the property is blocked off and unusable. The pool is an empty hole in the ground. I don't know where the pictures of the property were taken because I never saw that waterfall area. I will say my room was very clean. The refrigerator and microwave worked well. It was quiet and I never felt unsafe even though the property looked like a place you would find a dead body. They offered a small coffee pot. The rooms are VERY old! The whole place smells like damp. If you are looking for an adequate place to sleep with no frills, this is the place is for you. It is definitely not a luxury accommodation.

I wish Expedia would stay up to date with the hotels it offers. Half the place was under major construction, with walls missing and pool completely unusable. We did receive an email about the pool from the hotel before arrival but after we had already paid through expedia which had out dated photos of the pool. The rooms are large, have tile floors which is better than the old carpet in the hallways. The bed was clean but uncomfortable. But there definitely spots not cleaned well enough and the rooms had a smell of old cigarettes. The Lobby staff were nice and professional enough but overall the place is really run down. That being said for the price I have stayed in worse and maybe once all the construction and updates are done it be worth looking at again.

Charming Stay with a Touch of Nostalgia I recently stayed at this hotel and overall had a lovely experience. While the bathrooms could use a modern update — they’re a bit dated in style — everything was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The rest of the property has a unique charm that you don’t find in more generic, contemporary hotels. From the warm, welcoming staff to the character-filled decor, there’s a real sense of tropical beauty and hospitality here. If you’re someone who values cleanliness, comfort, and charm over sleek design, this place is a hidden gem.

I stayed here for a couple nights for a quick getaway for my birthday. I paid for a “Superior suite”. I was expecting a balcony or blinds to where the sun came in, like shown in the photos under the “superior suite” but my room wasn’t like that. It seems the photos are mixed up and they have the same photos on all the rooms that they offer. That was kind of disappointing because that’s what I was looking forward to the most. I read previous reviews about there being a smell in the lobby of mildew and I smelled it upon arrival. Also, I was in room 306 or 308 i believe, and the people next to me were extremely loud, the walls are paper thin. There is a dresser blocking off a door behind it, which i believe lead to the other room next to me that was so loud. The people next to me, were arguing. This is a good place to come if you’re not picky and just want to save a few dollars for a quick stay. Also no pool right now, but I knew that before deciding to come here. The t.v was great, lots of options. Room and bathroom very nice and clean. I would suggest maybe some aromas for the smell atleast in the lobby, and maybe some music? The silence is deadly and unwelcoming. The front desk gentleman recommended the restaurant on premises but I didn’t try it out. The vending machine was very convenient for me though.Although these are the things that I noticed. It was okay , I rested and I might come back again in future. This place has a lot of potential and I hope to see it. Thank you.

The room was hot when we arrived. I left the AC blowing all night, it never cooled down. Then the shower was ice cold. My son couldn’t even tolerate it long enough to bathe. Turned to the hottest temp and the water was still cold.

HORRIBLE PLACE- the room smelled like cigarettes, bathrooms had hair & not properly cleaned, towel stains, room warm, Pool was out of order. Do yourself a favor and don’t bring your family here and pay the extra $40 to stay in a decent hotel. I learned my lesson you get what you payed for.
