Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms are very small, dated and not well taken care. We found left over garbage from previous guests. The room smelled and it was very dusty. It is not very well taken care of at all. The pool was freezing cold like jumping in a frozen lake in the middle of winter. The pool and hot tub were also very dirty. They definetly do not take care of them. The area behind the desk looked messy, unorganized and dirty. Overall it is just very run down and not taken care of. I would never stay here again.

$20 per dog is ridiculous. You take a credit card imprint for any damages. That should cover any pet damage, not an excessive fee for pets, the vast majority of which do no damage at all.

This was an exceptional experience for us. Never been here before but found the staff very friendly and professional. The whole place was spotless. We found the pool exceptional and the hot tub very good. For mane the first time ever we did not find the indoor pool area to be hot and humid as it generally is at other places. Really this sleep inn was amazing.
