Honest review

The hotel has its pleasant aspects, including the pool and hot tub, but the front desk staff could have been more welcoming. Although my room was clean, it’s like they forgot they own a pool, with a lack of towels that they did not want to give us due to the room being ā€œservicedā€ already, and those available were stained and dirty.

Issues with Bathroom

While the room itself was generally clean, I found the condition of the bathroom to be unacceptable. Upon turning on the light, I noticed several strands of long black hair (which were not mine, as I have short brown hair) on the bathroom wall. Additionally, I observed small insects emerging from cracks in the bathroom, which I had not noticed earlier because the light had been off. I was quite taken aback by these issues and, unfortunately, did not take photos at the time due to feeling grossed out by the situation.

Good for the price

Stayed 2 nights to watch a Starship launch. For the price it surpassed my expectations. Clean and large room. Only problems: no hangers or shelves, noisy freezer, no holder for the toilet paper. I would recommend it if you are on a budget.

Stayed here once before and was not bad. Was with someone who liked it cold so I went to the office to ask for a blanket since there was not one on our bed. Was told they did not have any. What do you mean you don’t have a blanket? You’re a hotel/motel…then was told they would check and informed all rooms were booked and they had no blankets when I could clearly see rooms not rented out that had thicker blankets in the beds. Will not stay here again

The only positive thing I can say about my stay is that they allowed dogs and it was a last min booking. We were booked in front of the pool and the other guests had their toddles and kids running around banging the windows late at night. The pool had a closing hour but the families stayed past their time.
