It's an average place to stay. Nothing horrible and nothing exceptional. Worth the price. Front office staff were really friendly. I was a little spooked by some of the bad reviews but I didn't have that experience.

Dirty / Sticky / Hairy
We had a horrible experience, our room was so dirty, hair was everywhere bathroom and grooming area. Dead roches and our room felt so muggy / sticky. Our shower had 2 cracks on the floor so you could easily cut open your feet. Had to be careful how you stepped around. For sure we'll never stay there again, hate to say it but true.

Cheap, very cheap (get what you pay for). Property is in disrepair/worn. The rooms looked clean but with minutes we saw roaches running around. Water pressure in shower was very good. Not sure I would stay here again.

We are pet friendly; however, we have a pet fee too. We love pets but not all our guests love them; therefore, we all need to do extra work cleaning rooms that hosted a pet.

We are deeply sorry if you consider unreasonable our Damage Deposit Policy'. We do our best to offer descent rates. However, not everybody respects items in rooms. Damage deposits prevent, in a considerable way, damages to our property.

Dont recomend
This place was horrible!! The jacuzzi had a stench and was dirty hair everywhere and the stench started when the jets turned on. The carpet was nasty and sticky. The batroom door didnt close properly and the tv remote didnt work at all. The worse was the ac unit didnt cool the room and couldnt get a hold of anyone ..really bad experience

Room was okay but very outdated and old. The only problem I had was people coming back all hours of the night being very loud and the place felt unsafe. Definitely gives the “ my car will get broken into vibes”. Could use better locks on the doors.

Room smelled horrible! Then the restroom had a huge hole in the shower so had to change rooms. The next room was ok but still not good. Hairs everywhere on the bed, sink, and pillows. And to top it all off stains that looked like blood on two pillows. Do not recommend.

Met Expectations
Room and amenities were a little underwhelming. Pool area is small. Staff was very friendly and rates were lower than other hotels within surrounding area. Overall, I’d stay again if only planning on using the room to sleep in. Not much else to do within hotel itself.
