Rooms were nice but the amount of spider webs and bugs was just ridiculous. Upon entering the room it smelled horrible and there was so many webs in the corners and near the a/c. My daughter dropped something by the bed and when she went don’t to get it she noticed a huge amount of webs under the bed and dead bugs in the webs. We had so many dead crickets and spiders on the walls. The pool was not working and was dirty as well. When we arrived the person in front desk couldn’t understand nothing we were trying to tell him. Just overall a bad experience.

Upon arrival of the hotel we had a quick & easy check. We noticed only one side of the hotel rooms were available. Upon getting in the room, we seen that the sheets were stained & there was a left over beer can that froze in the refrigerator & the plate for the microwave was missing. I brought this to the front desk attention & was advised to get new bedsheets. The towel rail was broken & there was a lump in the floor as if the floors were not done properly. The front desk advised us to change our room after we notice the 2nd pair of sheets that were given had even bigger stains. The second room was okay but we were so glad we stayed just the 2 nights. This hotel needs to be shut down!!!

I can't help but think the high ratings and "wonderful" reviews for this place are fake because my experience was anything but wonderful. Within an hour of arriving, I encountered a cricket, heard non-stop crickets behind the wall art, saw a flying bug on the ceiling, and was greeted by a huge cockroach. Despite some nice renovations in the rooms, the critter situation made it feel like I was camping outdoors inside the hotel room. The hotel needs to address this issue before it can live up to its ratings.
