Wouldn't stay again

Was not very clean. The floor looked like it wasn't swept. There looked to be blood on the wall. Also our last night there we found a roach climbing on the door. The ceiling in the bathroom had mold all over.

We chose this location cause it looked to be a nice place and location to where our tournament was. We checked in to a very sweet lady Janice. We got to our room and had to quickly drop off our stuff cause we had an event to be at. That evening after coming back our daughter noticed a big while in ceiling above shower. Having daughters this was a concern for them. I had to put a towel to cover it. House keeping never came to our room for clean towels or clean the room during a week stay. I had to go get clean towels, trash bags and toilet papar. Reached out to management several times no response until I called corporate. Then hotel manager says they wld refund 25. That wasn’t even a nite stay and we even checked out a day earlier cause it was just ridiculous.
Besides the lack of housekeeping and this large hole. Room was clean comfortable and air was comfortable.

Worst hotel stay ever! Took 20 minutes to check in without anyone ahead of us. Bed bugs in one of the beds, Moldy food left in fridge, broken shower, clogged sink, towels covered in hair, broken door, key card stopped working and had to get a new one. Only compliment I could give to this place is that check out was quick. Additionally, listing stated 18+ check in and was told it was 21 upon arrival. Overall AVOID this motel at all costs!

It was alright

We stayed 1 night so we could go to the dunes. The check in was good and quick. You do have to put a $50 deposit down which was fine but not mentioned until we got to the hotel. The surrounding area was pretty sketchy, the A/C was broken felt like it was about 75 in the room so it was pretty warm, the maids clean at night and you can hear the vacuum and everything thru the door. Wasn’t a bad room was very clean but bring a fan if you like to sleep in a cool room!
