The smell of marijuana in the halls and lobby was overwhelming for the duration of our stay. There were peope loitering in the parking lot smoking and wandering aimlessly touching cars all hours of the day. The front door of the hotel was smashed and had apparently been like that for some time according to a staff member. Our bathroom was in disrepair and some outlets didn't work in our room.

Dirty room. Dirty hallways. Dirty walls. TV didnt have cable, only apps. But TV wasn’t connected to the internet. So no TV. Also, the pool has been under renovation for months with no expected date of reopening. Equivalent of ‘no pool’. Poop should not be listed as an amenity at this hotel.

The good thing was that the property is pet friendly. The front staff were also friendly and helpful; On the down side, the property is getting a little tired and in need of a renovation. The room is carpeted and full of many years of unpleasant odors. Unpleasant chemicals were used to disguise the smell. We expect better from Sandman.

The room was disgustingly dirty. The carpet was stained and filthy. The window sills and windows looked like they’d never been cleaned. The bathtub and toilet had permanent stains due to age. Hallways were in disrepair. Pool was out of order and not noted on Expedia. Railings were falling off and front entrance door smashed. Very unsafe for children or anyone with mobility issues

The staff was friendly and quite helpful. The linens were clean, but the carpet in the hallways was worn out. My mattress was worn out. The door to the bathroom wouldn’t close properly because is falling off it’s hinges and the fan in the bathroom sounds like an airplane taking off. I think it’s an old one from the 60’s or whenever the hotel was built. Doesn’t really live up to the Sandman standard that I was counting on.
