Very loud clientele I had to call the police. Workers staying at the facility partying in the parking lot. Hotel is clean but might be a low $$$ place so hard to get rest.

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Cleanliness
Pros: You can bring your dog for only $25 a night. The staff was friendly. Hot breakfast available every morning. Cons: The room was musty and smelled of mildew. Running the bathroom fan 24/7 and making sure the AC was running did not help. The walls had stains and the bathroom had beard shavings in the sink. If it weren't for the poor air quality in the room, the rating would be 1-2 stars higher.

I normally stay at this hotwl when I stay in the area, but the room smelled like mildew and the tv didn't work at first until a staff memeber came and fixed that issue. The elevator worked fine the night we got there, but the next morning it seem to be not functioning well. Other than that it was a great stay and the breakfast was on point. Thank you for you hospitality great staff!!!

The staff was absolutely fantastic but the hotel itself needs some work. The woman at the front desk got me sorted in no time despite Hotels.com failing to send the reservation to them. The elevator is quite rickety and the door doesn't close sometimes, requiring manual intervention that regulars seem to be aware of suggesting it's been like that for a while. When we got up to our room, our key card didn't work but come to find out the card reader just needed a new battery. Not only did the employee in the hall immediately notice we were having issues and offered to help, but he also then immediately informed the hotel of the dying battery and had someone up to replace it in little time. The room was fine although the A/C was a bit loud.

The first room given to us was overwhelming in its smell of cleaning products trying to hide the musty smell of mildew. Immediately requested a new room, which they provided and was no great change, but at least tolerable for the few hours of sleep needed. Would not have stayed if we had to spend any time in the hotel itself.

When we checked in and brought our belongings to our room I sat down at the desk and looked down and saw a bug at first I thought it was a cricket so I got a tissue to pick it up and when I showed my fiancé he said it was a cockroach, so we took it to the front desk and they proceeded to apologize and gave us another room, we moved our belongings from one room to the next that room had a smell of musty and pet urine mix, we were willing to give it a try since we had driven 6 hours to get there and hd plans to visit Busch Gardens, needless to say we spent the one night which I was unable to sleep because I was afraid bugs would be crawling on me. We checked out Saturday afternoon because we found 2 more cockroaches.

Never again!!

Room stunk, coffee maker did not work, guests were slamming doors all night and yelling at their kids and they kept their dog locked in the room howling all day and in to the night. Horrible and we'll never stay here ever again.

Liked: Amenities
Staff, breakfast, and cleanliness were great. We had a room on the first floor and the ceiling must be lacking insulation or some type of sound barrier because we could hear whenever someone was walking in the room or the hallway above us. We were not able to sleep. We did appreciate the friendliness of the staff.
