Staff was very friendly. Hotel was dirty. Floors needed vacummed in lobby & halls. Trash, food, dirt on floor in elevator. 2nd floor had a "dirty sock" smell. We had 2 rooms...our room had paper debris on floor when we walked in. Room smelled musty & dirty. When we turned the AC on, the "old sock" smell was very strong. The 2nd room shower leaked water because the shower rod was put up too high on one end, so shower curtain would not stay closed & water ran out onto floor. That room had a musty smell as well. Found 2 bugs...1 in bathroom, 1 on kids tablet on desk. Back patio was littered with cigarette butts. Housekeeping and groundskeeping is NOT doing a very good job. We had also requested a playpen, which was not in the room. Front desk gave us one. We chose this hotel because of closeness to airport for early flight...but will not stay again.

We stayed one night and used the shuttle to the airport. The staff is excellent and so friendly, the shuttle was great and on time. The room itself was ok, seemed clean and beds were comfortable. The only thing I found that didn’t seem very clean was the shower, that could use some updating as well as fresh caulk around the tub. The hotel lobby was clean. We did notice that the elevator floor as well as the hallways were filthy and didn’t look like they had been vacuumed in a very long time. That needs work, the pool area is small but adequate. We would stay here again if we have an early flight.

On a positive note the front desk staff was friendly and efficient and bed was comfortable. However the negatives far outweigh these positives. There was a disgusting amount of hair in the sink and shower. The bathroom door is so warped it only closes if you slam it. The coffee machine initially was fine, but then only put out water with a hint of coffee. Staff was notified, but after waiting a long time to be fixed we opted to leave and get coffee elsewhere. We got in late and left early and I am so glad we hadn't planned on a longer stay. I didn't expect an amazing hotel or anything, but this was disappointing for sure.

Don’t recommend for price.

If you like your space clean, this is NOT the place for you. The lobby looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks, along with the elevator. The room itself reeked of mildew, along with the sheets & blankets. The front desk employee was very kind & helpful.
