DIRTY SMELLS AND GROSS

It was the MOST DISTGUSTING PLACE IVE EVER STAYED! the rug was wet and the room smelled like wet dog. The room was dirty and gross I felt gross after showering. I tried to switch hotels but hotels.com was useless and could do nothing I’ve used hotels.com for years but I will be telling EVERYONE I know to not use them. I paid $338 to stay at a roach motel it was so awful the tv was tiny and the floor was sticky and rug had a huge hole and my boyfriend hurt his foot on the metal under the rug it ruined our whole night away. Don’t stay here it’s awful.

I don’t write reviews but I can’t believe I spent as much money as I did here. This place was run down everything was dirty and unkempt. There were flies everywhere. Our bathroom didn’t have a toilet paper holder. There was an old gross bath mat in the shower. The hallway was creepy and the pool was gross. It was understaffed. Our key card deactivated overnight and our whole family got locked out in the morning after breakfast. There was no one at the front desk. Another guest was also locked out. We had to call the only staff workers cell phone to get help. The other key card we had never worked.

This property was dirty, smelled absolutely awful in the halls and room, my daughter ended up with a swollen face from sleeping on the pillows, the shower was disgusting and had stains, dirt and hair, we had issues with our room key every day.. I could go on and on. No blow dryer or phone which I thought was just the basics. There was nothing else available or I would have paid for a second hotel. We dreaded going back after a long day in mystic which was very disappointing.

The back of the property that was our patio off the room had overgrowth of grass, weeds, and a broken fence that went to the adjacent back lot of the other hotel which was littered with trash. It did not feel safe. As far as the room it was "quick cleaned" and the pool area needs work the water was cloudy and the back door was kept open .
