Cons:

The management refused to address the illegal activities of guest taking the handicap parking causing elderly and disabled guests having to search for parking, while young construction workers took the available spots.

The worst hotel I have seen to this day. I am very disappointed.
Pros:

This was the most disgusting room I have ever seen. The entire bathroom had black mold everywhere. Every crack in the bathroom was dirty. There was water damage and mold all throughout the room as well. Yellow pillows and dirty carpet everywhere as well.

Cons:

The room was extremely dirty. Do not stay here. It is so dirty and the staff are very unprofessional. The only positive is the location being close to the airport.

Horrible
Pros:

Pool maintenance name Bow.

Cons:

Security was a big problem for my family and me in our rooms. Security doors are jarred side entrance door is broken. This is a security issue, anybody could just walk. I felt that it wasn’t safe to leave my room without a chaperone or my husband. it really smells bad. The carpet needs to be clean. They’re using some type of deodorizer that is no longer working. If you have a weak stomach, you know what would help happen. My shower was broken water everywhere. It was just a horrible experience.

Parking issue, thus I feel this needs to be addressed via Google reviews.
Pros:

Staff

Cons:

My greatest concern during my stay was the property management’s failure to ensure that accessible parking spaces remained available for guests with disabilities. Both my elderly mother and I have disabilities and require accessible parking. I brought this issue to the management’s attention on several occasions, yet no meaningful action was taken.

As a result, my mother and I repeatedly had to park farther away and walk a considerable distance because vehicles without proper authorization were occupying the accessible spaces. This was particularly common among some of the younger men staying at the hotel for construction work. Allowing this situation to continue was inconsiderate and placed an unnecessary physical burden on guests with mobility limitations.

This reflects poorly on the hotel, the property, and its management, especially because this is not the first time I have experienced this problem. I have stayed at this hotel four times because its location is essential for my work, but the ongoing lack of attention to accessible parking is deeply disappointing. Management should take immediate and consistent steps to monitor these spaces and ensure they remain available to guests who genuinely need them.
