Bonnie

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We walked in the door to five or six teenagers running up and down the hallway, screaming and giggling, and knocking on doors. The lady behind the front desk was so overwhelmed. She couldn’t get the people that were swimming in the pool to understand that the pool had been closed for over an hour. We got a refund after I arrived in the room and discovered that under the rubber mat in the shower there was thick black mold growing. We went back downstairs and said I want my money back. She reimbursed you guys, but I have still not been reimbursed. I am still waiting for my refund. I put out $126 on this hotel room and I have not received a dime back yet.im not happy with your service at all either.
