Bugs, bed uncomfortable, leaking shower annoyed us all night.
Pros:

Liked the breakfast, minus the roof leaking in the lobby we had to walk around.

Cons:

Bugs in room. Ants, spiders, gnats. Complained at checkout to the staff at counter and she said yeah sorry they’re everywhere bc of the heat. No work to try and compensate. I knew this trip I should’ve stuck with my usual place but opted to try this and it failed expectations. Also told her about the shower how it leaks and annoyed me all night both nights. Told her how the plumbing was hooked up wrong so hot is cold and cold is hot. Also got another excuse and no offer to make it right so I will not be back.

It was lovely.
Pros:

We got an upgraded room at 10pm. It was really nice and comfortable. I liked that the kitchen had plates, cups, pots, and pans. The fridge was nice because it made ice! We didn’t have to leave the room. We didn’t need to buy anything for the kitchen except food. My nephew and I really enjoyed the pool. It wasn’t too deep. There were clean towels available in the area. I really liked the hot tub. It was quiet. The staff was really nice and helpful.

Horrible experience, bugs in the room.
Pros:

Horrible experience — DO NOT BOOK A ROOM HERE

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The room was extremely dirty and unsanitary. There were bugs and what appeared to be fleas in the room. The sheets were filthy, with visible blood stains and hair packed underneath them. The towels were also dirty and had lipstick stains on them.

The property itself is very old and clearly not maintained. Everything felt worn down and unclean, making it uncomfortable and unsafe to stay.

After reporting the bugs, the manager refused to refund the stay. They only agreed to cancel the remaining nights, even though the room conditions were unacceptable from the start.

This place should not be in business in its current condition. I strongly recommend booking elsewhere and saving yourself the stress and disappointment.

Brittney was very nice, but that didn’t help.
