Good deal on a budget

Room was good for the price. Clean and had a comfortable bed. Nothing fancy just a clean place to crash during my fishing trip. Lots of good food and fun things to do nearby

The pool was nice and it was clean. The rooms were not. We rented 2 rooms. The floor got our feet dirty, sheets had stains and the pillows smelled like old man sweat. The price was reasonable but probably wont use this hotel again

For the price point...

It was okay, the rooms were cheap. However, we did spot a lot of black stains on the mattress. We were given another room so we were thankful. There seemed to be a raid at some point. There were also people doing laundry on the balcony. Whole experience was a little scary for our family.
