Look for another hotel. Even if you pay a few more bucks it will be a better value
Pros:

Location. Staff was nice.

Cons:

No room cleaning every day, dirty room, TV remote didn’t work. Unbearable smell in the room. Noisy room (109). Very basic breakfast (cheap muffins and granola bars only).

Pros:

Convenience of location to town. It was actually peaceful. There wasn't a lot of visitors that day.

Cons:

The water in the pool had bugs from the lights which could not be helped. And when you get out of the pool and go into the room you have to track across the whole carpeted floor.
