This is absolutely never ever gonna be anywhere I ever stay again!
Pros:

There was absolutely nothing to like about the property!

Cons:

The rooms were bare, the cable does not work and has not worked for at least a year. Apparently, there was no water pressure in the tub when you turned on the water it drizzled and took 45 minutes to run a bath, NO JOKE!

Pros:

The place was nasty 🤢.

Cons:

Everything was nasty. Mold, bugs and smelly. The room smells bad. Air conditioner had mold in it. The shower had mold. The mirror was nasty. Hair on ceiling and walls in bathroom. Hair in the floor throughout the room. Stained bedding.. 4 channels to watch TV. Cable doesn't work there. Beds were worn out. Cancel my second nite the first nite I was there. The family is sick from the mold that was in the room. Asked for a different room and was told they were sold out. I got up at 5am and the parking lot was not even halfway full. Don't sleep because of the bad smell. No pool. The tv remote didn't work. Took an hour to get a working remote for the tv
