There was so much clorine in the pool it hurt to open your eyes in the pool room. The floor was gross and hair all over in the pool. Had to ask for towels twice. Place smelled like someone was smoking weed in the hallway. Took forever for someone to co.e help us at the front desk. Said to call on the phone yet there was no phone to call. The blow dryer was broken. Disapointed.

Dirty bedding

The 2 service desk workers working night shift and over night shift were great. As i was getting ready for bed i pulled down my bedding and it looked like someone had already slept in the bed and sheets had not bed changed. It was confirmed when i checked the pillows and there was hair all over them. Front desk employee was very nice and apologetic. In the morning i noticed none of the hotel toiletries were in my bathroom and went down to the get some. The owner/manager said "here u go". No apology or anything.
