The pictures were not representative of the property itself. Everything was very run down. One of the beds was broken. Just an old building that no one seems to care to do upkeep or repairs on. The breakfast we paid for in the restaurant was the best part of our stay!! We were very disappointed and no one seemed to care.

Extremely run down. Had to ask for different room as the first one back door didn’t lock although they knew this they still give it to us. The 2nd room Ceiling paint was coming off and got on all our clothes on us if we were still In a particular spot. I don’t understand why Expedia has this hotel available on website. Very disappointing

Really bad experience, had to change rooms twice. First one was dirty and smelly. Second one got flooded. Rooms need some work done. Property is nice from outside only. I was expecting a really nice experience but turned the opposite. Requested my money back after my room got flooded and customer service was really bad, they didn’t help and they ignored me. Not recommended
