Not sure how this gets over 7 stars on Expedia. There were multiple roaches in our room, the bathroom door did not close, the parking lot was littered with questionable characters, there was noise throughout the night. Not only would I not stay here again, I would not trust Expedia ratings again. Live and Learn.

The older woman in charge was absolutely rude. Like I’ve dealt with unfriendly staff before but she was just downright rude and arrogant and her attitude made me want to leave. The staff was nice and not the problem, just the older woman sitting up front. She had answered the phone early in the day when I was asking about check-in and was rude then. The property itself is very outdated and not comfortable. The beds were horrendous and the pillows, wow horrible. The AC was acting weird and would stop working then would make loud noises and come back on super slow like it was struggling, just a horrible night. The only thing my kids enjoyed was the pool. We came from a soccer event late at night, around 11:00 pm, and trying to come into the gate there was a herd of young males there blocking the gate entrance and had the gate wide open with a rock. Definitely did not feel safe at all. The parking got full so we had to park outside of the property. The road inside the property should get replaced it is so bad there are chunks of asphalt missing. All-in-all we won’t stay there again. The only reason I booked here was because the reviews said it was a good place to stay and typically I follow the reviews but unfortunately our experience was not good. Hopefully others will be. I want to note, we only stayed one night.

First off, it looked like a ghetto hotel. It was gated, probably to keep the homeless out. I saw a roach in my room. The main entrance was on the main street and it was hard to find. The parking lot wasn't nice or neat. I could hear others through the thin walls. The bed was comfortable. The tv and a.c. worked fine. There was only two rolls of toilet paper, and with the office closing from 10pm-6am, what if I needed something? I won't go back to that hotel. You get what you pay for and I should have read the reviews before booking. It was close to a McDonald's and Wal-mart, so that was a plus.
