This was definitely the worst property I’ve stayed at. Which is only a bigger concern because it was rated 4.2/5 and listed a a 3 star resort. There was zero resemblance what so ever to the photos. Every single aspect of the room was starkly different. This trip alone has completely changed my trust in Travelocity. Every towel, and I mean all of them, were covered in hair and bugs and brown stuff. I took videos of this. There was also some random people roaming the lot at 3am. I was woken up at 8:30am by knocking at the door, I tried ignoring it since I was in bed having not got back to the hotel till around 3am. The knocking got harder and more aggressive so I thought maybe it was the police letting me know my car was broken into or something. I answered the door in my underwear and it was just housekeeping. However I was happy to ask for new towels since I couldn’t use any of the ones I had. Unfortunately since the room itself was so different incredibly from the listing and the experience was so far from the reviews. I’m not sure I trust using Travelocity anymore.

Terrible Experience – Do Not Recommend This place was absolutely filthy. The carpets were dirty, the bathrooms were dirty , and the sheets looked like they hadn’t been changed – full of marks and unpleasant smells. I felt uncomfortable the entire stay. Definitely not worth the money. Avoid if you care about cleanliness.

The room was ok. Not super clean, but not disgusting. Nothing fancy, but no bugs, so we were happy. Staff was not very friendly. And breakfast was sad compared to most places. Was told the had appetizers from 5-7, we went down at 5, and there was nothing.

the staff was ok, but seem to be too busy to hear about my complaint....when I was checking out, I had to stand there a bit before someone realized that I was trying to complain about the ruckuss that was going on in the middle of the night...and when I tried to let them know about the ice machine not working, I decided to walk away, seems like no one cared what I had to say...Rude staff...
