You could do better.
Cons:

There was garbage piled up outside the rooms on our floor and the common areas were filthy. The sheets were threadbare. The smell of Lysol was overwhelming, but the room didn’t feel clean.

Families Stay Elsewhere
Pros:

I only liked the location of the hotel.

Cons:

Other than the location and the guy who Mark who checked us in... i didnt like anything a out this hotel. Its BEAT UP! Not for a family to stay at. If your a youngster trying to save money thats cool but a family of 4 like us, never again! This place needs a face lift! Asap. The price was cool but like they say, you get what you pay for. I wanted to check out as soon as I got to the room after checking in! It was like that. The sketchy people outside, the beat up floor where my handicap daughter fell! Come on man! Just a bunch of cheap fixes. The bathrooms toilet seat was loose! The emergency sprinkler was rusted! I wish I could post some pictures! Oh I can!!!! Keep going down for the pics smfh. Also! The pool! I had to clean that thing myself when I took my kids in. There was flies and bees and leaves all over! We were there like 5 minutes and out! I felt bad for my kids, never again.

Pros:

It is a very clean and comfortable and the patrons mind their own business. The room I had had a king-sized bed and 2 bunk. Beds, great for the grandkids. I would recommend this place for people with kids. Grandkids dogs great place.
