Both rooms we were showed were filthy and had a horrible smell. The air conditioners looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in a decade. The walls were dirty and damaged and bedding was stained. We were told every room is going to have some small issue, so we left. Do not use this hotel!!

The room is wonderful!! The only downfall was it had a few specks of hair in the restroom shower when we first got there (that wasn’t ours of course). And the bathroom light flickered a little when you first turned it on. But overall it was a wonderful trip. The room was clean, the shower ran well and the temperatures were good. We had enough towels and the room was spotless otherwise. And the covers could be a bit thicker because that A/C was doing its job!!! But it’s also because me and my partner love our room cold. But overall experience would be a 8/10.
