Real bad staff horrible management charging extra for microwave. My girlfriend and I got kicked out do to be shor for $12 and force to wait until 3:30 pm to check in a no key room dirty lining in the bed no ac. My girlfriend end up with asthma sick of her stomach do to the high humidity in the room next morning while she was using the bathroom a dark tall skinny manager literally opened the door and told her to get out while she was in the bathroom saying if you don't leave now he will call police and have us arrested. I don't recommend at all.

the hotel rooms are nice but also I had bought 2 of them one of them had human feces or dog feces under smudged on the bathroom floor and the other one was nice and clean so not all the hotels were cleaned some were really really nasty and they said I stayed for to long and they kicked us out so now I'm trying to find a new hotel.

First room was dirty the only thing they did was make the bed. The bedding and floor was filthy. I asked for a room switch and they were upset. He second room was far worse. Dirty mattress, stained with blood, mold, bed bugs, and dirt. When I told the manager he was angry that I looked under the sheets. He was snapping at me. When I told him I would call the police that's When he agreed to give me a refunded

Hotel is very dirty. The room was dirty. The floors and sheets was dirty. Bugs everywhere. I asked for a different room. The mattress was disgusting. Stained with dirt, mold, bed bugs, and blood. I told the manager he was mad that I looked under the sheets. He didn't care about the filthiness. He was snapping at me. I told him I would call the police. He said he didn't and walked away

People coming here Swimming and not even staying here and then sit at the pool, invite a bunch more people, eating and drinking like they own the place ...Street walkers walking into Unlocked laundry room and messing with Washers and ice machine...
