The property is well worn and not cared for. The corridors are dirty. I was there for 10 days and my room was only serviced once. I was told it was every 4 days which was already stretching it, but then they did not even do that. Cockroach in the room. The only upside was the bed was newer and comfortable and plenty of hot water for a good shower. It was cheaper than some but you really do get what you pay for

A few of the staff members as well as I lost money in the vending machines and then the front desk girl originally said 3 PM. I tried to explain my aunt has Alzheimer’s, but within minutes, Joe was rudely banging on the door as if he was law enforcement told me I don’t care that you’re not dressed. I don’t care that you don’t have your teeth in get out. But once I got my things out of the room with a threat of calling the police, I feel grateful at least at the end of the day. They kept my things safe and I appreciate that very much.

You have been warned

No towels by pool. Room is dingy and rundown. Water was out for a few hours in room. Could not wash hands, shower or flush toilet. Looks more like a motel than a hotel. Pictures not an accurate representation of what it actually looks like. Will never stay there again
