Pay extra and stay elsewhere

We had a family vacation planned for the theme parks so decided to find a cheaper hotel since we would be gone most of the time. This was a mistake. Upon arrival, we noticed the shower floor was dirty, there was mold on the bathroom ceiling and there were various substances splattered on the walls around the room. There was a huge hole in the comforter on one of the beds and the walls were SO thin - we could hear entire conversations downstairs. On top of this all, the free breakfast benefit is basically useless. It is so small and so crowded we skipped it both days because the wait was not worth it. Major renovations are needed. Location to the parks is the only benefit!

The room and hotel overall was very clean, didn’t have to search for parking, and felt safe. The price was good for two nights and despite the below “issues”.. I’d stay again if needed. I didn’t like how small the breakfast area is, the choices were limited (please consider adding bread for toast and cereal!!), there was no “store” to purchase snacks, drinks, or other items like many other hotels.. and it was noisy.. you could hear anything outside of your room or walking through the hallway you could hear what’s going on in someone else’s room.

I want to say the moment I walked into this hotel , the smell to the lobby is so lovely, I was obsessed with the smell. The room were clean, the walls could use a bit of love found a lot of buggers on the walls in the bathroom, and stain on the wall behind the door of the entrance to the room. Beside that, bed were extremely comfortable the pillows were excellent.! The A/c was 10/10 it was actually COLD it felt so good slept amazing! I would love to come back to the hotel

Amazing for the price!

Check in was easy. $100 deposit but if you give cash you get back cash at check out. The elevator and hallway smelled of marijuana but not my room so it didn’t really bother me. Very comfortable and clean. Despite being next to the playground of a daycare, the air conditioner drowns out that noise. I got the best sleep of my life! Will definitely stay there again!

Roach Infested Room

Roach infested room. The first room was infested with several roaches. It was late when we returned back to the room. I didnt want to pack an move for 1-2 roaches, but during the nite, I continued to see more. Needless to say I was unable to sleep. The hotel did change our room that morning. The new room was clean and we did not see any roaches in the new room. They also turned out the room in order to address the infestation. The next evening, I could not stay awake however to enjoy my neice's film premier. Other than moving our room, the hotel did not make any offer for our sleepness nite.
