Unsatisfactory

First, I got a call before we checked in telling me that I had booked a room with two beds, but they could not provide that. Me and my granddaughter settled for king size bed. My granddaughter brought along her own blanket to sleep on top of the line. Their room was very musty and had an odor. I went to Walmart and bought air freshener. The next night we did receive a room with two beds. This room was not as musty, but I still used the air freshener. Both evenings before checking in there was a lot of people in the parking lot and appeared. They were homeless people. This was disturbing an alarming. I will not stay this week.

Sleep great

The stay itself was very relaxing, the bed so comfy, if you like softer beds that pillow around you, but the shower was awful and shower curtain didn't keep water in shower so water got everywhere and the water didn't adjust well

Horrible stay

The room was very run down. The window wouldn't close or open just stayed partially open. The air conditioner unit hard to operate. The door was not on correctly so you can hear everything walking by. They were testing their alarm system from 630am to 7am!

Good service...horrible room

After requesting a downstairs room for our friend who couldn't do stairs, we were given an upstairs room. One of the beds in the room was broken; if you sat on one side, you would fall on the floor. The outlet covers were installed incorrectly. Only one light in the room worked.
