The good thing was that the property is pet friendly. The front staff were also friendly and helpful; On the down side, the property is getting a little tired and in need of a renovation. The room is carpeted and full of many years of unpleasant odors. Unpleasant chemicals were used to disguise the smell. We expect better from Sandman.

The smell of marijuana in the halls and lobby was overwhelming for the duration of our stay. There were peope loitering in the parking lot smoking and wandering aimlessly touching cars all hours of the day. The front door of the hotel was smashed and had apparently been like that for some time according to a staff member. Our bathroom was in disrepair and some outlets didn't work in our room.

Specifically booked this hotel as in town for a youth sporting event as it said on the website it had a pool. Get there and find out it doesn't its been closed for months! surely this could have been reflected on the other booking platforms! it was laughable as we opened the door to the hotel room - the pictures on expedia are clearly of a different hotel! the rooms are old dirty and falling apart.

Perfect sleepover.

The indoors of the property was clean (did not use the pool and such). Room was clean and comfortable. The rooms /bathroom could use a refresher for removing the wallpaper (it doesn't clean well), and the bathroom fixtures...tub was leaky, lots of sealant on sink. The one night stay was very quiet and teh bed was VERY comfy after a VERY long drive. I will stay again.
