I picked this location for the pictures provided but it did not match. My mom got bed bug bites and we saw bugs in the bathroom. Thankfully we stayed only a night but we left in the morning eager to leave. The lady at the front was the most positive thing because she was very nice and helpful.

Bed Bugs live and dead
Bed Bugs, live and dead in our room on pillows and under the bed valance sheets. Collected some dead ones and brought them to conscierge and the young lady was utterly unplussed to see them: I can't do nothing, my manager is not in until Monday morning.

Not again
The only good experience was checking in and out. The room had dirty floors(needed mopping real bad), we had two big dogs in the next room that barked until the owner came back. Appeared to be someone that lived there because there were plants. Never will I recommend.

Odor of some cleaning product(I assume) was so strong allergies and asthma symptoms were a real problem. I’m still suffering with headaches and other symptoms after a one night stay. I will not use this hotel again. Otherwise it was an average room and we had no issues.

Older hotel that needs upgrades. Sheets felt damp on the beds like they weren’t dried completely. Breakfast was decent. Pool area looked great.
