The place has extremely long hallways, if you ever saw the movie the shining it’s similar. It’s decorated in a deep brown, which makes it look dated. I got food poisoning at their restaurant, and there was a bug on my bed.

We should have known something was up when we checked in and a man was complaining about mice in his room. The property is very rundown and dirty. We woke up to find a big black bug in the bed. The carpets smelled like somethng had died on them. The pool was beyond filthy. This is a one star hotel at best. Avoid!
