Disappointed
Pros:

Friendly staff.

Cons:

The bathrooms were nasty in the rooms both rooms had hair in the bed and bathroom, and bowel dropping on the floor and dried blood on the bathroom walls although I only paid four hundred for two rooms for one night I was disappointed that I talked my party out of staying at a cleaner place and they didn't feel comfortable lying on the sheets.

We adapted to the situation.
Pros:

The food was acceptable, nothing great. It was convenient and on time

Cons:

I made reservations 7 months in advance, the day of arrival I was advised they over booked double rooms and had to use a roll away bed, which was less than comfortable.
