Our stay was just ok. Area and hotel were quiet. Hairs on sink and towels in bathroom. Stained bed sheets, bug in room crawling on us during the night. Would not stay again but decent for price. Breakfast was just ok.

Upon checking in and entering my room the room had a strange smell. Additionally my bed was covered in dog fur. I didn’t realize this is a pet friendly hotel when I booked it but even so it seemed as if they had remade the bed from a previous guest and didn’t change the sheets at all which leads me to believe the towels weren’t changed either

Check in was easy, the staff was helpful and courteous, the room was quiet and breakfast was better than at most hotels. However, the bathtub had quite a few dark hairs in it (my hair is white, so they weren't mine) and there weren't any tissues.

This was an absolutely unacceptable stay. There were roaches in the room and hallway, including a half-dead one in the shower—disgusting and inexcusable. The floor was dirty and downright disgusting, showing a clear lack of cleanliness. The toilet ran nonstop the entire time, and the room was unbearably humid. Nothing about this hotel matched the positive reviews; it was a complete disappointment. I strongly warn others to stay away, and I will never return.
