I was not given the room that was shown to me in the online advertising. I really needed a microwave but there was not one in the room. I had to wait for 3-4 hours before a room was available. We were celebrating 58 yesrs if marriage and brought our meals already prepared. Just needed to warm up but had to eat out more than anticipated. We met others at the same resort that paid significantly less than we paid for more than we did! It was very disappointing. The continental breakfast was very good. The staff was apologetic and very courteous!

The property is definitely not “Lakefront”, it’s views are overlooking a retention pond with a broken down fence in front of it, I called the resort a few days before and was told I could do early check in but when I got to the resort they refused to allow the early check in and was rude about it. The hotel was not in a good area; the room was ok but there were no trash cans, and no rags. When I tried to take a shower the stopper for the tub would not go fully into the shower mode so I ended up having to lay down and put my head under the faucet part of the tub to rinse my hair. Also, it needs to be noted on somewhere here that the hotel charges a $50 deposit and no certain time frame for when it will be put back on my card; one person says 1-2 days and another says 4-5 days I’m not usually one to complain but the pictures are not accurate and while not the most posh or expensive hotel I could have picked for my anniversary, I will definitely not be staying here again.

This was the filthiest hotel I have EVER been to. We arrived at 230am after traveling all day from Alberta. We got sent to one room and when we walked in all we could smell was dampness. The room was not made up after the previous guests left, so I called.the front desk and they moved us to another room. When we got to the second room, you had to physically slam.the door to get it to open and it also had to be pulled or pushed very hard to cloae it. Inside the room was very stained carpet,a bathroom sink that was so full of cigarette butts and hair, that it all came up when you brushed your teeth. The tv did not work, the wifi did not work and the phone did not work. I woke up with bumps all over my body. The pool was full of sand and garbage. The "complimentary" breakfast consisted of hard boiled eggs and bread. The toaster didn't even work. After one night of 5, we decided we couldn't handle it anymore and when we talked to the manager, he offered to put us in another room but admitted it wouldn't be any better. He gave us a refund for 3 nights and said for the extra costs would have to go through Expedia. He said Expedia could call on Monday and talk to the head manager Estelle. Expedia promised tbey would.help me but after one day of not being able to reach Estelle, they gavd up and said they couldn't help me.

It’s the most horrible place to be in, mold, broken toilet seats, broken drawers and mold all over the closet with doors you can’t even open. Very unprofessional and unfriendly staff. The smell is horrible in the room. I was told when I checked in, this is the only room we have and we are very short on staff so don’t call us if you don’t like the room. We don’t have anything else to offer you. Never again and I will not recommend this place even if it’s the last place. I would rather sleep on the street than a room in that filthy place.

The pool was nice and clear, didn’t smell overly chlorinated. The deck chairs are sun baked and breaking apart. The rooms for sure are very dated and could use updating. The sink in the room looked like someone hawked a loogie into it and it never left, just solidified there. The ceiling in the shower was peeling and dropping lil bits in the shower and on the floor. Not super clean, base boards and carpet had dirt and stains on them. The key to our door had to be remade 4 times. First one did not work right off the bat. Second one, we were at the pool, went back to the room, didn’t work , walked back to the office got a new one it worked… same thing happened again. Speaking of the door, it was all mangled and looked like at some point someone tried to break in.. the lady at the desk did help but had a very poor attitude about every interaction. Check in, problem with the key anything you went up there for, she was less than thrilled to help. The lady that was there at check out was nicer. Overall the words I would use is update and clean. Not the most god awful but wished it was better. You get what you pay for and lesson learned.

Needs TLC

The room had roaches. The phone to the front desk wasn’t connected to the wall or the receiver. Tried to take a shower the water was cold. Staff was nice and understood why I wanted my money back. They said… I would receive my refund within five days . So I hope they honor their word. It’s a shame the place could be nice if it had TLC…

I liked the location. The door to the room was weak and hard to open. I felt like it was going to break in half. Upon entering our room, we were hit with a terrible stench. The carpet was filthy and stained. The bathroom door would not close, the hinges were rusted out and the door seemed to be too big. There were stains and splashes as if something exploded in the bathroom.

upon check in we were given a room that was not cleaned (at all, it still looked like someone was living in it) went back to check in for a new room, got a clean one. clean as in beds made and not messy, but the room itself was very very run down. on the carpet you can tell there might’ve been a flood, therefore it also smelled very musty. the paint on the ceiling outside of the bathroom over the sink kept peeling and falling off randomly??? our first night someone who worked there banged on our door (at midnight) accusing us of putting one of the room chairs outside on the walk way…. wasn’t us obviously we had no clue how it got there thankfully we weren’t asleep yet, there were also people constantly beeping in the parking lot all hours of the night. we only used the room to sleep in so it did its job for what we needed, anyway we were very surprised at our findings of this place seeing it has a 4 something star rating on expedia and an 8 something on hopper??? it’s a 2.7 on google FYI.

A place from hell

It is the second time I reserve through this platform and have to admit is sad the conditions and pictures populated are not monitored prior to post hotels. This place was simply terrible. Black mold everywhere, clogged showers with lots of hairs, not working fridge, disgusting carpets and smell, ETC. I went to lobby, which is the only clean area in the place and asked to switch room and the lady refused to do so and the place was not full. No wonder probably all was same.

Worst hotel experience.

False advertising! The pictures compared to reality were completely 180 degrees of one another. The sprinklers were rusted and looked like it couldn’t even save itself from a fire, the doors looked like they were already termite infested with missing decorative pieces, the doors did not close properly, and we had roaches! The whole place could use a renovation if they want their ads to reflect the truth. Yes, booking was cheap but for the experience, not worth it!

One of the Worst Hotel Experiences – Don’t Be Fooled by the Pictures This hotel was a complete disappointment. It looked nothing like the photos online. When we arrived, our room door was wide open — which made me feel really unsafe. Once inside, it only got worse: the bathroom was filthy, the rugs were disgusting, and the entire room smelled horrible. The air conditioning was insanely loud, making it nearly impossible to sleep. The breakfast area was very poor, with barely any options. It’s clear this hotel is in desperate need of maintenance — our bathroom sink was stuck and barely usable. The only saving grace was the staff. Marie and Luis were incredibly kind and helpful. Marie helped us switch to a slightly better room, and Luis brought us some ice when we asked. They truly went above and beyond, but sadly their kindness wasn’t enough to make up for how bad everything else was. We ended up leaving a full day before our check-out because we couldn’t take it anymore. I absolutely do NOT recommend this hotel.

We arrived after a long day at the beach to find our bathtub clogged. Disgusted but exhausted, my kids and I showered in water just below our knees. We decided to brush it off and wait until the next morning to report the issue. We told the front desk the bathtub was clogged at 7am the next day and asked for it to be fixed while we were at Disney. Front desk said she would let maintenance know. We came back around midnight from Disney, hoping the problem would be fixed and it wasn’t. Very very upset with our stay here.
