Room not ready

When I checked in I found out that someone else had taken my reservation. For at least 1/2 hour I had to prove that I was the person that made a reservation and paid for the room on 5/6/25. Eventually, I was giving room 302. Water was constantly dripping in the tub. The floors needed to be swept, and sand/dirt were in the bedsheets.

Worth the money

Was a fairly comfortable stay. Room was clean. Both key cards were deactivated at the start of my second day and receptionist blamed it on me. At checkout a different receptionist kept saying another persons name while she was checking me out. Room could use some minor repairs but didn’t mess with my stay.

Room Review

Cleaning staff could have done a better job I felt like. Floors were cleaned but all the dirt and dust was pushed up against the wall by the air conditioner. They did not restock the toilet paper and tissues. Had to ask. No coffee or cups left the second day. They did leave clean towels.
