Room had window shutters,did not stop bright light outside window from illuminating the room. Only 1 set of towels left in room. Bathroom counter falling apart. Ceiling over tub with large crack and broken area. Ceiling over window in room unpainted with multiple holes, I assume from curtain rods. There was a small amount of scraps left on floor. Front desk staff did nothing to help with this. Room door slmost took slamming to get in finally locked. And construction on site still going on after 6 pm

No towels

Only one bath towel. We were it would be 2 hours before towels would be available. After 2 hours still not ready. We went to bed. Next morning still no towels. Desk and housecleaning gave us attitude about a simple request for towels. Yes it was a busy weekend but the attitude was not needed

Underwhelmed for the price

We only had one set of towels when we arrived. Coffee maker in our room did not work. Each new day we had to have our keys reactivated so we could get into the lobby for breakfast. No sitting chair in the room. One afternoon we tried to sit by the pool but left after a short time due to the noise of the power washer. When we returned to our room the floor in front of the door was wet from the power washer. The tub faucet dripped the whole time. It apparently has been dripping for a long time as the tub has rust at the drain.

Yikes

This was the most disgusting room I've ever stayed in and not at all how it was pictured. The room was filthy in every sense... walls with dirt & marking all over, couch was covered in stains, there were 3 empty 40oz beer bottles in one of the cabinets, shower was gross, some of the wiring for the tv just was a hole punctured through the wall eith tape holding it in place... just eww.
