Clean and fix up your hotel.
Pros:

Staff was friendly.
Decent breakfast.
Decent-sized room.
Bed not too bad, comfy.

Cons:

The pool was not heated, which was one of the reasons we wanted to stay here, as our daughter likes to swim. Also, the jacuzzi was a piss-yellow color, so I was too scared to get in it. As we were speaking to the lady at the front desk for recommendations on restaurants with good pizza, the ceiling started to pour rain from outside near the breakfast room door. Our room smelled like stinky feet/a weird, funky smell. We couldn't get a refund, or that would definitely have been an option for us.

Good for the price, breakfast was good- slightly more than a continental breakfast.
Pros:

Breakfast was good. All the standards of a continental breakfast with hot eggs, sausage and potatoes . Rooms were clean but did have a musty smell until we turned on the air. Slept well- beds and bedding were adequate. Better than other places I’ve been, that’s for sure.
Pool area was good, but pool was super cold. Did not stop my kids, tho!

Cons:

Musty smell in the room, but did disappear after we turned on the air.

Good location but in serious need of updates & checks for fire safety
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The room was ok. Only 2 outlets worked in the room. 1 light blinked off/on all night the 2nd night there. Outlet covers were very loose, not allowing plugs to sit properly.

Great location and value. The room was fine besides the dried puke on the nightstand.
Pros:

The location was great and staff were friendly. We stayed with my dog and it was comfortable for her.

Cons:

There were kids partying on the sidewalk outside of our room on the first floor. The nightstand also had dried puke all down the side of it.
