Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was really disappointed with my stay here. The room had only two pillows per bed and no comforter—just a thin soft blanket. The TV remote didn’t work properly (you couldn’t move left or right, only change channels and volume), so using apps like Netflix was impossible. We asked the front desk for extra pillows and were told they didn’t have any. They also advertise breakfast, but there was none at all. On top of that, the bathroom door didn’t even close all the way. Overall, not worth the price. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Polk was lovely, breakfast was frozen waffles and frozen French toast stick, there were two types of cereal. They did have coffee if you like coffee and some vice canes and oatmeal cream pies….. bathroom was small.my room key kept giving me trouble. Overall I would find something docent and better next time.

The room was not very clean. The toilet seat was not bolted down. The man at the desk said he called the plumber but no one showed up. The restrooms in the pool area were disgusting. There were construction workers staying there and they were very noisy. I will not stay there again.

Just Passing Through

The people that I saw while there were friendly and everything worked out ok. I left early in the morning and the lobby was locked up so I couldn't officially check out but it was comfortable. The only thing that I wished is that I could have plugged in my electric car to get a charge but it was a priority for this stay.

Not a great choice

Check in was very long even though checked in and prepaid online. Also tried to make a copy of my driver's license which is not acceptable. Parking is poor. The facility has had updates but still not very clean and a bit smelly. Is a partial smoking facility which may lead to some of the odor issues.

Mold, stains on sheets and beds, cigarette holes, smelled disgusting, ac was on in entire building but didn’t work, employee picking nose, swears on signs, chlorine on top of smelling like cigarettes hit you as soon as you walk in. The pool water looked thick, elevator was bouncing while the door was closing, my daughter had a nose bleed out of both nostrils as soon as we left the building. No we did not stay we requested a refund because it was horrible!
