I would never recommend this place to anyone, had to stay because every other hotel was booked. Terrible service, when we told front desk staff that the room was dirty and the chairs were halfway broken she told us “oh okay I’ll have the Mexicans go and do it”. Which they never did, had to go to Walmart to purchase towels because all there towels were dirty and when we asked for new clean ones they did not have any at all. They stopped answering are calls when we had a problem or we found something wrong with the room, half the lights didn’t work. They said the area we got was non smoking but people were smoking marijuana. I would love to get a complete refund because the experience was overall terrible and I hope no one ever stays there. Also there was another visitor staying and she was yelling at the staff because they stole her beers, which made us believe they stole our stuff as well. DO NOT DTAY HERE!

The front desk has a nasty attitude so if you even ask her to replace your car because it is an active she will get an attitude. I extended my stay due to Hurricane Helen and a front desk elderly woman stated because you stayed pass three days we will not clean your room. The gym lights don't work so you work out in the dark and the breakfast area only has one lamp. So everything in the breakfast room is basically eating in the dark. So please don't stay here.

No one was even at the front desk for much of the time after I arrived, which was about an hour early; finally left and came back at check-in time, and she still wasn't at the desk. Tried calling a few times, but no one answered. Took over 20 minutes to get me checked in; staff/owner kept complaining about slow system, walking back and forth between PC monitors; had the nerve to take a phone call while I had been waiting too long already. Bathroom had a hole in the wall; exterior steps in need of repair; the door had a crack at the bottom when closed
