Cleanliness
2
Strongly negative in multiple reviews: reports of roaches, urine, marijuana and sewage smells, moldy/sticky carpets, stained/burnt bedsheets and a dead cockroach — overall very poor cleanliness.
Service
7
Mixed feedback: several guests reported rude or unhelpful workers and issues with refunds/communication, but a number of comments noted the reservation/check-in went smoothly and one review called the front desk 'fabulous'.
Location
8.5
Generally positive: multiple guests cited a good location and nice views (mention of dam and proximity to family) despite some exterior noise and safety concerns about doors.
Room Quality
3
Negative: TVs with no signal, very cold rooms, sticky carpets, no shower curtains, broken sinks, doors/locks not functioning, and overall many rooms deemed unfit for occupancy.
Amenities
4.5
Below average: missing or nonfunctional amenities noted (no breakfast despite listing, TV problems, doors not locking) and many facilities appeared shut or under renovation.
Value for Money
8.5
Several reviewers noted the price was good or acceptable for what was offered ('you get what you pay for', 'was good for the price'), which raises perceived value despite facility issues.
Food and Beverage
3
Negative or missing: guests reported no breakfast despite site listing and no positive mentions of food or beverage services.
Overall Experience
5.9
Overall poor experience for many guests due to closures, severe cleanliness and room issues; some positive notes on location, price and occasional good staff interactions slightly mitigate the score.

DO NOT STAY HERE
Pros:

I had a reservation and that went smoothly, I had purposely asked to be in a room in view of my vehicle since I knew this wasn’t a great area, nor do I trust anyone. The room that the receptionist gave me was in no view of my car, so that was a disappointment. I decided to give the room a try anyway and when I began to inspect it I smelled urine, marijuana, and even a smell of stool. It was disgusting and the air felt humid and wet. I went back to the receptionist to complain and ended up just telling him that I don’t want to stay anymore and that I would be leaving. I would recommend asking for the copy of your ID just in case, you never know with these people.
