Our bedding hadn’t been changed out from the previous guest. We pulled the covers back and found hair and dirt. The floors need to be vacuumed as well. When my husband went to talk to the clerk about the issue, another man was complaining about the same issue. The clerk told him there was nothing her could do because the cleaners had all gone home. We slept on top of the covers with a blanket.

Front desk was friendly but the place is dirty and dingy. The bathroom was disgusting and the first floor was so bad smelling ( like mold) I got sick and had to request another room on another floor. Three lobby is immaculate. The rest of the place is a dump. Never again.

I checked in late and went straight to bed so I didn’t get a chance to inspect the room. I had a better view of the room in the morning and noticed: a dead cockroach, a living cricket, a piece of sharp plastic and the carpet was not clean. I would have requested to change rooms if I had noticed that this room was NOT ready when I checked in.

Mediocre at best
There was old food left in the refrigerator, the bathroom sink didn’t drain and a plastic bag placed over the smoke detector so it wouldn’t work if there was a fire. The bed mattress was extremely uncomfortable. The only positives were a nice pool and pleasant staff.
