Very rude front desk receptionist. We checked in an hour and a half late and the room still wasn't ready, clerk stated it wouldn’t be ready for another hour and a half which would put check in at around 6:30 pm. He then stated if you don’t like it he can cancel the room. Very rude response. Will not stay here again!

Would never stay here again.
They didn’t even have a garbage can or a blanket in the hotel room. I had to bring in a garbage bag and a blanket. The room was clean enough. I would not take a bath in their tub and risk infections though. The WiFi pretty much did not work, which also made the tv not work because it’s only on internet. So I had brought in a portable dvd player to watch something before bed. At least the A/C worked. I booked a room elsewhere for the following days and was so glad I did!

Terrible and overpriced!!
I booked for the pool, no pool there was a sign at the front counter that said pool out of order. The tv wasnt working due to high wifi usage. Phone was broken. Nothing to eat for the continental breakfast. Everything was out except cereal and sliced bread and bagels. No juices out of service. Out of waffle batter. To pay 229.00 for the said things this hotel should only charge 45.00 a room because all you're getting is a bed.

Overall, I thought the stay there was okay. The complaint I have was that when it came to taking a shower, I couldn't adjust the water temperature. The water was purely hot only, and the faucet wouldn't allow me to adjust temperature, thus I wound up not taking as complete of a shower as I would have otherwise because of the water being excessively hot.

The GOOD: Ease of check-in, friendliness of staff, air conditioner worked well, and had fridge.
The BAD: Filthy room, stained carpet and bed, torn ceiling and broken floor in bathroom, hair in bathroom and tub, uncomfortable bed and terrible pillows, bad tv remote control, some lights didn’t work, shade was torn. Pool was closed as well
It was a one night place. Got ok enough price but would rather sleep in vehicle next time than stay here

Rooms were just average clean. Shower only hot water that would scald you, so couldn't take a shower. When I reported to the front desk it was like oh well, we are working on that. If shower not working properly don't rent the room. Breakfast was not impressive at all, coffee so strong it was undrinkable. Won't we going back there. The price of the room as good.

I showed up at 4:30pm to check in and was told my room was not ready. I was finally able to get into my room at 5:30. I booked a queen bed single and got put in a double twin room with no asking if that was ok. The pool was not working which after reading reviews has been down for many months. The "breakfast" was some bread and bagels. Overall, a very disappointing stay. Definitely won't be back.
