Very bad experience! Poor customer service, dirty place with bugs, smell cigarette in the room, stains on the carpet, curtains. This hotel looks unsafe and for shady activities. Property says no cigarette but people smoke in front of their room and even inside. Front desk is rude and doesn’t know how to respect their guests. I will never book with this hotel anymore!

Their photos show a sparkling blue pool…..90 degree heat, pool was a shade of green/brown….YUCK! Hardly an enjoyable stay! No breakfast, and restaurant closed on property…..had to pay for rides just to get a drink. NEVER AGAIN! Expedia should be ashamed to have this hotel on their website as a 3 star hotel….it more like a 1/2 star hotel.

The room was filthy. The tub was dirty. Spider webs and other questionable stuff on the walls and ceiling. Carpet was dirty. The other occupants were extremely noisy from about 1am until early morning. I almost felt like they lived there.

Pictures were misleading
We didn’t end up staying. When we got to our room the carpet was stained, the bedding was stained, the wall in the bathroom was falling apart and it reeked of bleach to the point that if we stayed we would have gotten a respiring disease. The pool was also a murky colour, would not swim. We checked out after 10mins

Do not stay - dirty, unkept & not cared for
So dirty. Carpet unmentioned. But even sheets had hair & stains on them. Pool was green. So unfortunate since this hotel could have a fun retro feel. Management not investing in it any longer. I even changed rooms but same filth. The girl at front desk was pleasant & accommodating the best she could. Felt a bit unsafe

The style is cool. An oasis amid new housing. The courtyard is loaded with exotic singing birds. The place was clean. The pool maintenance guy uses a net, but no chlorine.
