Disgusting, run down, and dangerous. Room I was given had stains everywhere and a window that is wide open and cannot be closed or latched. Asked for a different room. Second room was just as bad but had dried puke everywhere instead of a broken window and dirty clothes someone left.

I booked a room online through bookingcom and the price was pretty good but honestly I feel like the price I paid was still too much for the actual room quality I received. Our reservation wasn't in their system yet and was told it could take 45 minutes for that to happen so I had to go in a look for the reservation number and give it to her. When given the room key, there was no mention about the WiFi or password..also I paid the security deposit in cash but no receipt or any kind of physical evidence that it was paid in order to get it back the next morning (I even asked her about it and nothing). I was surprised by the room itself because of how dingy and dirty it was going in. Fridge was dirty, inside the drawers, bathroom floor felt oily to the touch when I walked on it, sheets and blankets were worn and stained. The bathroom sink had a crack from one end to the other and leaked water on the floor plus there was some weird cutout in the bathroom wall with a metal piece in it but had small holes in it?? (I covered it up with a hand towel ?????) The air conditioner's plug was spliced together with another completely different plug in cord and was absolutely dangerous. Then there was a few disturbing situations/noises with other guests outside, throughout the night. I'm not a picky person but I was pretty upset with the condition of this hotel.

It was alright, room was in rough shape, blood on a towel but the bed was clean and the room was quiet aside from some kids in the room next door but they went quiet when it got late

My only criticism is that they had a very bad Internet connection. The worst I've ever experienced at a motel. Don't come here if you need a reliable WiFi connection. I didn't even stay the night because the WiFi connection was so bad.

SO UNSANITARY!!! Mattresses are stained, all the bedding is dirty, hairs and dirt within the bedding. Someone's dirty carpet parked in the parking lot next to our room. We were offered another room and it was worse. Lobby smells horrible. Owner REFUSES to issue refund, LYING. DON'T STAY HERE

Do not stay here. Room is absolutely disgusting. Stains everywhere, there is hair in the mini fridge, toilet wasn't cleaned, the smell is horrible and bugs all over. Reporting this place such a waste of money should of just stayed in my vehicle for the night.

You pay for what you get. Two people slept the queen bed. Only spent one night there. Friendly and rapid service. Smelled heavily of chlorine, so that was somewhat reassuring. No blinds on the bathroom windows, but pillow cases held up by tacks. Stains on the outer blanket/sheet but the inner bleached white ones were clean. Hard bed and flat pillows. Checked for bed bugs this morning and was all clear no issues. Heater worked fabulously though!

This place says no smoking and the whole room smelled like cigarettes. There was probably 10 flies in the room. Nasty stuff on the walls. had just paid for the room and asked for a refund and they refused to give. Worst hotel, do not recommend.

Kind service and great clean pool. The location is nice, several different food options within walking distance. The rooms are uncomfortable and we had to change rooms several times due to different issues. One room had dirty sheets and the other only had scalding water.
