Good for a one night stay at was we were attending a wedding. Price was inexpensive. Staff were very pleasant. Building and rooms are run down and could use updating. Breakfast was very carb heavy with no protein options. Hot tub was nice.

The front desk receptionist was very friendly and helpful during check in and the price was very good. The cleanliness of the room was not great and the tub drain was partially clogged. There was an overall dampness to the room and hotel in general.

Only reason we booked this was for the kids splash pad/pool play area however this was closed at the time of check-in. There was no notification during booking that it would be closed. Whenever the staff at the front desk was asked for anything it seemed like it was an inconvenience for them to go get it. For the breakfast, there was gallons of milk in a fridge for cereal. When it ran out and got replaced, the replacement had been expired for 8 days and there was no additional after that. It appeared that the front entry and exterior had been slightly remodeled at the time but the rest of the areas were original, even with the previous hotel's emblem on the rooms.

You definitely get what you paid for. If you’re looking for a mediocre place to swim and sleep this would be ok. Just know the photos are deceptive. All weekend the trashes were over flowing, hardly any staff around, the ones you did encounter were not friendly at all. Pool areas rarely had clean towels. I don’t think anyone vacuumed behind, around, or under furniture. We had 4 people in our room and were only given two towels. When we asked for a couple more we were told they didn’t “have many” only way to get more was to give them the dirty ones. The house keeping carts were filthy. Breakfast was scarce and typically trashed, if they ran low on things it wasn’t easy to get things refilled. The kids enjoyed the pool, but even the chemicals were off in it, as our suits are all new colors and hair is going to need some serious attention with how fried it is. Also, please note there is not an elevator and the ice machine does not work on the second floor.

Please Dont Stay Here!
Please don't stay at this hotel. I am actually a hotel GM I could not swim in the water in the pool. It was green and murky it look like something from an alligator farm. The room was not clean the bed was very uncomfortable. There was dust everywhere and dirt and blood. Look at all the other reviews on here. Look up what the people are saying. Just stay away from this place. You can find much better. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in in my life period

We chose thise hotel because it was over 3 stars. It should NOT have this many stars. Our bathroom had a broken cabinet, the bathtub was moldy and gross, and the tv remote did not have a cover to the batteries. Light fixtures in the hallways are broken, baseboards in the hallways were falling off, and we had a large dog in a room near ours that was barking.
