Poorly maintained. Pool water is green with algae. All A/C in hall of 2nd floor hall not working, exposed wiring, knobs missing on units. My room (designated non-smoking) smelled of smoke. No continental breakfast (which I believe they claimed to offer 1 year ago when reserved), and bed sheets had stains.

The property is very outdated, and the hallways to and in the rooms were very stinky of cigarette smells. It literally made me nauseous.

Ashtray smelling- misleading breakfast hotel
This hotel was a never again from the moment we walked in. The man didn't want to get out of the chair to check us in. We walked in the hotel part and it smelled so bad of cigarettes it wasn't funny. Then a little rat dog tried to bite me. We get to the room and go in and it is set at 86 degrees and is hot and humid. There is no chair to sit in like it says there is. There is hardly any plugs. The room is supposed to be handicap accessible and you couldn't hardly walk. The bathroom was big for handicap but it was supposed to have a shower with a stool and it was a tub with a torn shower curtain. The only thing good was the beds were comfortable. The next morning we went for breakfast and only a quarter of what the pictures show they have was there. it was basically non existant. Go to leave and look at the pool and it looks like it has been decaying for years. We get back to our room that night and someone had been in our room even though we had the do not disturb hanger on the door. Someone came in and was watching tv. They had changed the tv guide to HBO and it was changed so everything was in Spanish. Then we go to check out the next morning and the same man did not want to check us out he was to busy stuffing his fat face with food. Very rude, Very misleading photos and description of hotel. Will never stay again.

The day time receptionist was very rude and inappropriate. Multiple times he accused me of having inappropriate guest in my rooms when it was only me and my daughter which were 6 and 12. Not to mention the pool they have a picture of on the brochure and website is completely wrong. It was drained and full of dirt and trash. Overall if you get what you pay for here.

Advertise pet friendly. Charged additional $28 for having a pet upon arrival. No receipt for pet charge?
Response from Sam on Jun 2, 2023
Hi Mr. Eddy,Thank you for asking for pet policy.A pet-friendly hotel is generally one that allows some animals on the property under some conditions. However: Many pet-friendly hotels charge an additional fee. Sometimes this is a flat per-stay fee, sometimes it varies by the number of pets or number of nights stayed.

This property sucks! Do not stay here. There is an inside door to get to your room but he makes you go back outside in the rain to go through a different door. The hallway has no air and smells horrible. The sheets smell horrible. The floors are sticky and dirty. The hallways are very hot and smells very bad. The weed smell is horrific. The wifi dont work. The breakfast suck. The bread was so hard you could hear it if you knock on it. People standing outside by the vehicle's all night like they selling drugs. People please do not stay here. You will regret it.

Woke up in the middle of the night, turned on the light, and saw a roach cross the floor. Later feet were itching, pulled back sheets to bites on my ankles. Small specks on the bed looked like dead bedbugs. Due to the conditions of the room, I ended up leaving at 1:30 AM. The front desk clerk would not provide a refund because I had been there since 7:00 PM. Not a good experience. I do not recommend this hotel.

You get what you pay for
Needed a cheap hotel and didn't have high expectations. Entire hotel smelled like cigarette smoke. My room was non-smoking but you could tell tons of air freshener was sprayed to try to hide the smell. Bed wasn't made properly. The A/C worked great so that was a plus. Staff were friendly. Seemed like a safe environment. The room was surprisingly quiet and couldn't hear any road noise. I only stayed here because I was by myself and needed something cheap. I wouldn't bring my family here.
