Not impressed. Will never stay there again.
Not much. Will not stay there again. Very expensive for what you get.
Security lock missing from door. Beer bottle cap on floor in room. No hangers in room. No ice available even though there is a sign pointing to where there is no ice. No cups of any king in-room. Burn holes in bedding. Couldn't understand manager due to strong accent. Had to ask to repeat many times and still could not understand. Other helper didn't speak English. The lighting was poor -- ceiling light in an odd place. Not helpful. Breakfast was just OK. No bottled water in room. They gave dry oatmeal for breakfast to be cooked in microwave but no water to go with it.

I have never stayed in a worse property!!
There is notation like about this property!!
We disliked the whole experience. Do not make the mistake we made DO NOT STAY HERE!! This place looks nothing like the photos. The room was somewhat clean. But the grounds are deplorable. Filthy dirty. Has been cleaned in years. Would not touch the hand rails, GROSS!! The pool is green and the hot tub is empty. You have to walk across a busy 5 lane road to the sister property to get ice. We booked two nights and could not tolerate staying the second night. We left a day early and drove home at night rather then stay another night!!!

Staff was super nice. Could improve on cleanliness.
The best was surprisingly comfortable and the AC worked great. The staff was also very kind.
The pool was not open and was green. The room was pretty dirty. I had to wear socks or shoes the whole time or my feet were black on the bottom. The desk was pretty busted up, the lamp wouldn’t turn off unless you unplugged it, the desk chair was filthy and a little rickety, they pressure washed the walkways and all of the debris is stuck all over my car, there was what looked like dog hair stuck on the side of the tub and on the freezer inside.

Disappointing. Traveled with my grandkids and they really wanted to swim in a cleaner pool.
The staff was friendly. the cleaning people were friendly. the bag of breakfast was okay. the air worked great. I was able to get fresh towels everyday.
There were coach roaches on the floor when we checked in. there was not a plug in the bathtub the first day I told the manager and the next day I received a plug. there was no water in the jacuzzi and the pool was dirty. the pool has rust in some areas. air conditioner needed new filters.

Would not stay again.
Room size was decent
The facility ground are disgusting. The type of clientele that stayed at facility were "questionable." Definitely feared for our safety due to location. Rooms were in disrepair, wall outlets were hanging from wall, lights flickered on/off on their own.

We opted to leave after 1 day even though we paid for 2, threw away hard earned mi Et for this stay.
sorry- nothing.
employees in parking lot smoking every time I went outside. Quarter roll TP for 3 people. housekeeping rude, no hangers for clothes, no iron, dead bugs on floor. totally in appetizing and though we prepaid for 2 nights, we checked out after one night, as early as we could. this is the first time in my life I was compelled to give a review. not happy at all. just plain dirty outside of room and people hanging outside the rooms til the wee hours.
