Unfortunately we did not have a great stay. Rooms were unclean. We found an empty pizza box inside the fold out couch and wrappers/garbage in the top drawer of the dresser. Room did not have blankets for fold out couches and when we requested them the front desk said they were out. Hallways were littered with garbage, wet pool towels and other miscellaneous items. There were fights between guests at the pool which resulted in police on site and an arrest. Staff did not step in at anytime, instead telling guests they could not kick anyone out and it was up to the guest if they wanted to call police. A child vomited in the pool and staff didn't do anything other than try to clean out the bigger pieces with a net while patrons continued to swim. No enforcement of wristband policy for pool and it did appear a group of teens not staying at the hotel had come in to swim. Front lobby was so cold staff wore coats, hats, and gloves and did not tend to front desk, but stayed in an office behind the front desk and monitored cameras resulting in long wait times and an appearance of no staff.

The heater made a loud bang when it kicked on in my room and there was no hot water in the mornings, the hotel itself smelled.
