2/10 Poor

This location appeared to be a halfway housing property with broken down cars in parking lot, prostitutes hanging around. Not a place to bring families
Verified review

4/10 Fair

During check in, they messed up our reservation, by not reading first names and we had to wait almost 30 minutes to get a room. While the room was decent and mostly clean, there were cigarette burns along tub edge, ashes smeared on bathroom wall & door. Trash receptacles around property full or overflowing, along with trash in breezeways. The swimming pool is more than half empty & green. Online pictures don’t accurately reflect current conditions. Multiple items were missing from the room: no phone, no coffee machine (accessories present), no hangers, no pad on ironing board, no quilt/comforter on one of two beds. It did provide us with a place to sleep and shower, and you can see the property is definitely a work in progress, as it looks like the rooms were partially renovated.

I like the room it was great. I book here because of it had a swimming pool (it was dirty and not even ready to be used. I wanted breakfast it did not have anything just coffee o hot water for tea. It look like it’s getting renovated because just some rooms were available. I hope when they finish it like the picture on the website.

I think this is family owned and the staff tries their best to be friendly. They upgraded me to a suite which was essentially 2 rooms in 1. The room has minimal cosmetic upgrade, the floor was dirty, no towels, no shower curtain, nothing in the room works! Morning breakfast was a brown bag with snacks from Costco! Maybe they need more time before they open for business.

Renovating & not ready to rent rooms to guests.

Check in lady was nice, said we had a pool view. The pool was only 1/3 full of green water. We were moved to a room with parking lot view to see our car. The phone did not work. The TV did not work, no connection to a network. Front desk girl could not locate a manager or maintenance person to fix anything. We only stayed as the beds were new & comfortable, there was very little choice in the town. We did get on the adjacent hotel Wi-Fi to watch a movie on our laptop. The bath sink would not drain at all. The rooms are called suites with fridge, cooktop, small coffee pot. We went out to eat. But absolutely no utensils, cookware or dishes to accommodate anyone who panned for this.

I didn’t check to see if they had stairs or elevator so me and my handicap husband had to go up flight of stairs and they were not in the best condition.Also they were not enough of towels inside our room and they were roaches in the room also. They never said anything about bags of snacks for breakfast because I start we were having breakfast inside the hotel like eggs, sausage and waffles etc.

2/10 Poor

It was awful. The staff won’t answer the desk phone. We booked for 3 days, housekeeping wasn’t offered for towels or trash or anything. Sit trash outside if the door on day 1 and dirty towels , they were still there when we checked out on day 3. Had to walk to the front desk each time we needed to shower. The water is brown when you first turn it on. The TVs don’t work. Asked staff to help fix the issue, he told me to connect my phone to it, but you can’t do that either because neither will connect to the WiFi. We will never be back to this place. Ever.

The room was huge which was amazing but I’m not sure when the room was cleaned last. The floors turned my feet black so I could only walk with shoes on. The shower look like someone had just used to so I was iffy about getting in of course. Also do not expect to get your deposit back. I left the room in the same condition and they never refunded me for my stay

Decent room for the price. Could have been cleaner. Very loud guests are night. My husband asked for a pillow (3 provided for a king bed)and the front desk never provided one, he had to track down housekeeping. They only provide one towel and washcloth and do not replace or refill toiletries. We had small used bottles left for us by previous guest. Full size fridge and microwave was nice.

Don’t waste your money!! The whole place is nasty and sketchy. Shower and tub was brown. Don’t get me started on those beds they were just filthy covers not clean and had crumbs in the bed. They gave me another room but I end up not staying in that one either.

Property offers to go bags with a water and biscuit instead of breakfast. The guy was nice to change our room after initial one which was not clean.

Dead bugs in the floor, pool was stupid dirty with dark green water. No breakfast like it said online. The hotel overall was pathetic. The pictures make it look 1000x better than it actually is
