There was construction everywhere. The pool was closed and I took forever for someone to help me. There were several rooms with people openly smoking pot and you could hear everything. My sheets had rips in them and there were no towels in the room. Toilet paper was just sitting on the edge of the tub. It was the worse stay ever!

I got a call two days before reservation -- there was a maintenance problem so four rooms were out of service, mine being one of them. Reservation was canceled. Then I got a call that it was okay, i could come. The night before the reservation at 9 pm, I got a call and they canceled again for Maintenance "plumbing" issues. I never stayed here. I had to pay way more and stay 28 miles away to have a place to sleep that night.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff were great, very accommodating, however we were disappointed that the pool was not available to use during our stay. When you pay to stay at a place with a pool, it is a bummer when it is not in service especially when there are kids who were looking forward to swimming after a long day of adventures.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
it was an interesting day, the room looked nothing like the room in the pictures… I’m guessing that is because of the poor poor lighting. it seemed kind of rundown. They did do the best could with older fixtures, etc.. The local neighborhood was iffy. I’m guessing the pool is permanently closed. Extra fees everywhere. We did save a reasonable amount of money compared to fancier places. Still, next time I will be shopping in different chain.

Haley

Disliked: Amenities
Our room had exposed wires, stained pillow cases, cob webs, dead and alive bugs, and was just gross. Looks NOTHING like the pictures online. Different flooring and bedding and all. Plus, we overpaid through Expedia! I went in to ask for a refund and was denied even being able to see the refund policy. They just offered a new room that was also disgusting. I was hoping to maybe even get one nights stay returned to me so I could go somewhere else. I’m disappointed because this was my first time booking and I figured through Expedia I could trust the photos and price. I tried to call Expedia to help with getting some sort of refund, and he listened to ONE of the issues in the room and wasn’t able to help. We have two young kids so obviously a disgusting room is unacceptable. Will obviously NEVER be staying here again. Attaching a few pictures, but wish I would’ve taken more!

Had to wait a long time for the clerk to check us in. We had stayed here before and it was good. The room smelled musty. There is evidence of black mold in multiple places. The bath towels were stained badly. The coffee service was empty and despite a request never refilled. The upstairs residents were noisy. The entire property needs a total make over.
