Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Reserved two rooms. First room, the bathroom was filthy. The toilet had poo streaks in it, no toilet paper, hair all in the shower and dirty sink. Second room had a soiled comfort with an unknown substance. Both red and brown in color. The website didn’t disclose information about the indoor pool being closed. Having 2 small kids with me, that was the highlight for me to reserve this location. But…….pool was closed and under construction. Went back to hotel the following morning because the clerk charged my card 3 times for 2 rooms. Ended up leaving the hotel right away and paying a higher amount for clean rooms elsewhere. Very disappointed as the hotel took away funds from me that were allocated for my grandkids and myself to enjoy the area. When I went in that next morning, I was yet charged again for the 4TH TIME! Now I don’t have the funds to take grandkids to the Washington Zoo…….. Had to ask family to zelle me money just for gas money to get back to Indianapolis. This was my first time being financially able to provide for my family on a quick overnight trip. What a disappointment.

The room was really big, the minifridge and microwave where tiny and no counter space. Had to go ask for towels like 3 times. The breakfast was toast, bagels, or cereal... Also the pool was under construction but that's meh. Went to the beach just north of here. Good time at the beach and no the trails.

The room was not clean, smoke alarms were off the wall, toe nail clipings on the ground, blood on one of the mattress sheets, one wall had feces on it, pull out bed was broke, and a piece of skin that look like a callus that they ripped off their hand.

Falsely advertising pool open when it was closed, the breakfast was horrible. Nothing out and no one was allowed to restock it. The coffee creamer was as spoiled. The room was not cleaned properly, the bath tub was clogged. If cleaned properly the maids would have fixed it. Cops were called cuz of a fight on my floor. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to nobody. For what they charge you it is not worth it

Our room had extensive black mold in the bathroom, all along the flooring and even alongside the wall. Our key cards wouldn’t work either, so one person had to constantly be in the room to let the other in. The staff was friendly, but the hotel is in need of serious renovations and cleaning. They shouldn’t have let someone stay in a room with so much mold.

When we first got here, it seemed okay. It was easy to get to, which was nice after dealing with the wild construction on the freeway. The outside isn’t impressive, the pavement is worn out & it’s directly next to a little seedy liquor store. No big deal as it’s generally clean. Room is actually quite big, & seems clean, although there’s a stale smoke smell. I’m wishing I took the time to read reviews & not look @ price only. When people said nothing works, they meant it. I’m in room 320 now at 3:41am & have been woken up every hour by the entry light coming on by itself. (My daughter and I are on the pull out bed, so this is directly above me.) And there is beeping every few seconds in the hallway, reviews said is the fire alarms, which is not reassuring. The TVs are not set up properly and kept glitching out until we gave up trying to watch anything. Pool and fitness center are both out of commission; it seems there is no end in sight as the reviews from two months ago said the same thing. Shower has shampoo but no conditioner. There was no bedding for the pull out bed; my hubby had to go down to get some, even though there were multiple extra pillows in the room. From what I read, we will have to skip bkfst as toast & bagels won’t cut it for us. The “good price” is still too much for the loss of sleep, and now I wonder if it’s actually dangerous to stay if the electrical is on the fritz.
