The management did not address our concerns when we checked in. The hot tub was dirty and disgusting. There were absolutely dirty filthy towels that were folded up and placed for reuse, the Television didn't work and several building code violations throughout including exposed /incomplete electrical wiring. I went to the front desk and asked for corrections and was assured it would be addressed while we went out for dinner. It was not and when we came back I was told they had nobody to correct anything. We went to sleep in disgust, did not shower and went to speak with the manager in the morning. The staff agreed all of the items were unacceptable and told me that I was the one who broke the TV and dirtied the towels- until he realized I was recording in anticipation of his reaction. He then directed me to speak with the maanager "Jig" at 11am by phone. Surprise, no manager available. I called back at 3 and asked for Jig again and then he hung up on me. He then refused to pick up the phone. I wasnt seeking a credit or refund. I just wanted these items corrected. When they weren't, I then was expecting a credit, which I don't think is unreasonable since we paid more for the Hot Tub Suite that we wouldn't use because it was disgusting.

First off when I went to our room it looked like spit balls on the wall and in the bathroom ceiling. I realized that they were put there to cover holes in the ceiling and wall. The staff members were unprofessional and rude. my battery died and ask one of the staff if she knew anyone that could give me a jump and her reply was "What are gonna pay?" I said "what?" Her reply was " no one will do that crap ( she used foul language) for free here." I had employees enter my room without permission twice. I found a man laying in the parking lot one morning and he was unresponsive. I went to the office and told the employee and he came out and slapped the guy in the face, he was still unresponsive. I told him he needed to call 911 as he had labored breathing as well as being unresponsive. He didn't want to, but I insisted, so he did. Some of residents that live there were unruly there was verbal fighting multiple times when I stayed there. Also it is in a very bad neighborhood.

I would not recommend this place. They hadn’t cleaned because there was a actually half smoked cigarette in between the bed and table. The shower was dirty and there was a roach in there.. Half of the outlets didn’t work. The pool looked dirty. They had no continental breakfast or coffee on site as promised in the listing. They were hesitant to provide us with more towels when we needed them. Terrible experience

We faced a problem while checking in at the Hotel. Hotel reception said that we didn't pay for the room. I show the receipt that I got from Expedia.com. But he refused to check me in and said they didn't get any kind of payment from Expedia.com. I paid double for 1 room and 1 day. It's ridiculous

The thought of off the street comments. Was pretty sketchy walking to and from the bus stops after dark. The staff was very friendly. No place to put or store our luggage for the day. Check out was 11:00 am flight didn't leave until 9:55 pm. They are definitely doing some improvements to the outside but should definitely work on the inside!! Staff was very friendly including the main maintenance man.

The room had bedbugs and they still tried to charge for us for one night when we went for a refund after being there for less than 5 minutes. The bathroom was dusty, and the towels were dirty.

As a motel it has the convenience element but at the cost of a reasonable hotel. The bed was clean, surrounding area was also clean. No noisy neighbours and I had a go in the cold pool. If the price was lower than what I paid at $90 I would have rated higher.
