Pros:

One of the worst experience. Arrived at 12 am, received a room which was old and dirty. Candles was burning to cover the smell. Roaches on the wall, I called a guy from downstairs so he literally killed it with his hnds stating that room was sprayed today. I couldn't stay in this place. Left the property, called Expedia. They gave me $100 credit. I never received my money back for a booking. Stay away from this place.

Pros:

Our room had a terrible odor, floors and counters were dirty, I even found a cigarette bud on floor. Small cockroaches running around everywhere. We would’ve left and got a different hotel but everything was booked. The bed was squeaky and old. I would never stay here again or recommend to anyone.

A Big Mistake
Pros:

Reservation for two nights. Left after one night even though I had been charged an outrageous rate for two. I could not stay there. Hotel in very poor condition. Information on Hotels.com was deceptive. I should have paid more attention to reviews.

Motel room from hell
Pros:

This place is an absolute hell hole!!!!! It’s by far the WORST hotel I have been to. Everything is dirty, broken and there are cockroaches crawling around. There is tons of mold on the ceiling. The toilet doesn’t flush. Just thinking about it gives me the creeps. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

Pros:

We missed a flight so got this room late around 8pm it looked nothing like the photos at all and was infested with bugs . The sheets had not been changed and were dirty and sand in the bed . I spent two hours on the phone trying to get through to Expedia to get help to move and could not get through . My boyfriend slept outside at the pool because we found 2 bedbugs . I also had bugs in my bags and coach roaches everywhere when we left at 5 am to the airport and I had to throw them out when I got home .When I finally got through to Expedia they had me contact the hotel.. The hotel refused to give us a refund . We paid about the same a night for a week in Hollywood and had a lovely clean hotel right on the water . Do not stay here it’s gross and looks to be home for meth users
