Lots of work to be done.

Shower had lots of black mold on it. Temperature control on shower was non-existent. No exhaust fan in bathroom. Pieces of ceiling and wall flaking onto carpet. Locks on doors broken. Carpet was dirty and stained.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
It was nice, but the restaurant/bar attached was closed/out of business, the complimentary breakfast was lacking: ran out of coffee, eggs were not so great, the pool area was dirty, and there was no turn-down service to ask for extra pillows or towels. Also, the blankets were itchy. The front desk was very nice and polite. It was a nice stay, the place just needs some TLC.

This hotel is good for the price but could use some TLC-especially with the breakfast. I could rather have a cold choice breakfast that is clean and safe than a hot breakfast that looks unsanitary or not edible.

My bed had a huge sink hole to sleep in. Breakfast was all gone and very dirty for service area and tables. No fruit, beverages besides milk-I cannot drink milk. Safty an issue too as many of outside doors had broken locks so anyone could come in without their card.
