Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Only issue we had no tissues in the bathroom at check in. Other than that check in girl was amazingly sweet, the room was clean, a little smelly, but clean. We had enough hand soap, lotion, body wash. My only complaint the conditioning shampoo is pretty harsh on my hair. But thats not the staffs fault. I really should carry my own.. there is a pool and hot tub, and ice machine. But i dkdnt use the hot tub or pool this time around.

Renee

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Dirty. Feet were black. Hair all over bathroom. Shower falling apart. Man that checked me in didn’t say one word to me. Makes sense why there were like 5 cars in the lot on a Saturday night. Fridge was off and smelled like rotten food. Only perk was that they had a nice grass area for dogs. Charged me 25$ for him though- the resort I stayed at the next couple of nights didn’t. Wouldn’t stay again. Better spending your money elsewhere.
