Within 2 hours of being there, we left!!! It was really dirty in the halls and in the rooms. Went to go shower, mold in shower and the water went from cold to hot. Tried to adjust for over 10 minutes. Then kids wanted to swim right when we got there. Pool was dirty, wasps flying around, water was cloudy, and patio furniture was broken. Riding up the elevator and it was rough and made a lot of noises. The inspection sheet by the state that was on the elevator was expired on Aug 1st 2023. Almost two years out of date. Ice maker was also broken. Do Not Waste Your Money!!!

I like that was close to where I needed to be and i felt safe. I stay in the hotel few times before. Didn't like that it was not as clean as before and the hallway carpets color is so ugly and make the hotel looks unclean. The rooms are nice and comfortable. And the cleaning service was great. I have only one counter person that was not friendly at all.

They were doing a refurbishment of the hallways, so we were kind of leery until we got to our room. Wow! Room was completely refurbished. Fantastic room. Same with front desk lady. So, friendly and performed her duties above and beyond expectations.

Property was under construction when we got there. Nails and screws on the floor. Elevator broken, so we had to carry 2 children to the 4th floor after our flight, at 1230am. Room smelled muffy, staircase smelled like weed. Would not wish this on my worst enemy. DONT GO!!

This property needs some serious work. We stayed in room 417, the shower would not turn off and dripped constantly all night. No cold water in the shower and the hot water was scalding so a shower was not possible. The shower faucet and wall panels were barely attached to the wall. Stepped on a drywall screw left on the floor. Trash (dirty diapers) from the previous occupant was not emptied by the cleaning crew. Toilet didn’t always flush. Sink was cracked. The refrigerator did not work.

Not so happy

The elevator was out of service and had been that way for many days. Our room was on the fourth floor. Not very convenient for a 66 and 64 couple. One of the employees did carry one of our suitcases up to the fourth floor that was very helpful. In the room the bathtub leet water constantly could not turn it off. The air conditioner rattled and did not cool the room very well. The exit door to the stairwell you had to hit it very hard to get it open and every time someone went out or in he woke you up. In the shower surround it had a large crack that stuck out you could get cut on it. On the good side the bed was very comfortable and the room looked very neat and tidy.
