8/10 Very Good! (942 reviews)
The lobby and hallways were extremely hot. It was not pleasant eating the continental breakfast while sweating because of no air-conditioning. The food also was not good.
The pool area was also extremely hot. The pool water and hot tub water were slimey. We couldn't get to our shower quick enough!
The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The air conditioner worked and it cooled the room ,but it did not pull the humidity out of the room. The bed sheets and the carpet felt damp. The room air smelled musty.
The side door to the hotel was not locked. We did not have to use our room key to get into the building.
The gate to the dumpster was left open and horrible sight to see all the trash and smell it, too.
We will not stay at this property ever again.
