Awful, wouldn’t recommend anyone stay at all.
Pros:

They did accommodate us and put our rooms next to each other.

Cons:

Property is falling apart. Because of that, the rooms felt very dirty and gross. Damaged headboards, fabric
Falling off of them. Carpets in rooms and
Hallway had stains everywhere and were torn up. Cabinetry was falling apart and pealing.

Pros:

The bed was comfortable

Cons:

The hotel wasn't very nice looking, especially for the price. The carpet was stained, the pool area could have been cleaner. We booked for four people and they only gave us two towels and washcloths. We asked for more and it took hours to get them and still we didn't get any more washcloths. They bathroom only had one and a half small rolls of toilet paper. The towels were scratchy. For the price paid for one night it was disappointing.

Kind of what I expect from a Holiday Inn. Functional, not ideal, good value for the money.
Pros:

Breakfast buffet was good, not great. Bed comfortable.

Cons:

Shower leaked out onto bathroom floor.
Electrical outlets were limited by the bed.
No end table on one side of bed
Only one lamp between the two beds
Breakfast buffet limitations -- fruit options, no yogurt

Would not recommend this hotel and suggest you scratch it off your list
Pros:

Location was close to where I was at

Cons:

There was bugs in the room and some were coming up out of the sink
Also When I called the place to make sure that they were king beds in the room they told me yes but when we got there, there was only queens or they look smaller than me

Also, I paid for an upgrade and you guys charge me $4.91 but when I got to the hotel, they didn’t show it in their system and they didn’t show that they were paid for it

Two of my guests that were staying with me left because of the bad conditions so I had to refund them their money for half of the room

I would appreciate if I could get a refund of about 50% for the inconvenience

Thank you
