The restaurant had great food. The staff at the hotel were amazing however the pictures on the website don't match the appearance of the rooms. There should have been a notice that the hotel was under renovations and the pool was not available. The rental car that we had was damaged during our stay.

Staff was great, parking was hard, room was outdated, very few lights, bed had huge footboard that made it impossible to see the tv, bathtub had jacuzzi jets which was nice but didn't look clean enough to relax in. Very nice that there is a separate restaurant attached to the hotel with pretty good food! Only stayed one night - it wasn’t bad (bed was comfortable, sheets were clean) but it wasn’t the best either.

Didn’t get what I paid for, I got a superior king but didn’t get that room upon arrival, when I asked about it, she said “all rooms are the same price anyways”. Knowing I paid more that room. The halls and rooms smells bad. Everything is closed. They told me it’s a no smoking property. But yet everyone is smoking outside of main entrance. A lot of Empty cans and shooters in parking lot. They had no towels, I asked for an extra and they said “we have to check what we have” For the price I expected a lot more. The lady in the mornings was pretty rude.

The was room was clean. The bed sunk in the middle (missing middle bed frame leg) underneath. Both lamps did not work. Burned out bathroom light. Couldn’t watch tv in bed as footboard covered up most of the tv. The little patio was nice, but the chairs were rusty and broken. Pool being redone and no tiki bar.

Misleading Photos – Major Maintenance and Hygiene Issues I am writing this review to warn others that this hotel looks nothing like the professional photos advertised online. I chose this property specifically for the pool and the updated appearance in the pictures, but the reality was a complete letdown. Key Issues: * Misleading Marketing: The photos are clearly outdated or heavily edited. The property is in a state of significant deterioration. * Hygiene: This was the most upsetting part. I found a fingernail in my bedsheets, and the stairs leading to the rooms had a persistent, unpleasant odor. * Room Condition: The bathroom was incredibly outdated. Even worse, the plumbing was so loud that the shower made a disruptive noise whenever someone in the neighboring room used theirs. The ceiling paint was also cracking and peeling. * Accessibility: Only the main building has an elevator. I was assigned a room on the second floor of a side building and had to haul my heavy suitcases up the stairs myself. * The Pool: A major reason for my booking was the pool, but it looked like it hadn't been filled or maintained in a very long time. It was unusable and eyesore. Verdict: The management needs to be honest and update their photos to reflect the current state of the hotel. I feel completely misled and would not recommend staying here until a full renovation and deep cleaning take place.

This is a terrible hotel, rooms and hotel are run down. Pool is under renovation. Confusing pulling in because they have a different name at entrances. Did not stay and they refused to refund. I do not recommend this hotel. Pictures do not represent the conditions of this hotel.

To be fair, it is onvient to fast food and Trader Joes. However, the place looks nothing like the pictures. Half the rooms are blocked off with chain link fence for what looks like construction but there were no workers or equipment present. The pool was half way thru what appears the be a relining but no workers or equipment anywhere to be seen here either. The room we received was straight out of the 70's complete with all the wear and tear on every piece of furniture to prove it. Leaking shower with chipped/cracked tiles and he toilet seat had most of the finish sanded off on all edges to confirm the advanced age of this facility. If you're a horror movie fan, this hotel is straight out of central casting .
