The interior of the hotel feels dated, with visible rust on the faucet. In addition, the room had an unpleasant odor. I stayed for two nights, and housekeeping skipped cleaning the room and changing the towels without offering any option to request service.

The moment we checked in we noticed the hotel looked very run down and the sign by the road was scratched out, and also we were told to put down a $100 deposit when the site said nothing about it. When we actually got up to our room the stairs we took to get to the room were chipped and falling apart with roaches strewn about. The actual hotel room we were assigned to was missing a tv and it smelt of mould and a certain cleaner i couldnt pinpoint, there were disgusting mysterious liquids on the walls and broken tiles in the restroom and throughout the actual room. When we brought all our concerns to the front desk they said they couldnt do anything about it and they also refused to give our refund back after we asked. They ended up giving us another room and the ONLY difference was that this one wasnt missing a tv. I would NEVER stay here again and i hope noone ever has to either , we were also BULLIED into giving up our parking spot when another family came up and close to our window and made up lies about saying management gave them that spot and they constantly honked at us till we moved. THE POOL AND HOT TUB WERE DISGUSTING, with multiple drunk people drinking and partying at it, you ALSO have to gather your own wet dirty towels and take them all the way to the front desk by hand just to get new clean ones because maids come every OTHER day. After telling the front desk AGAIN about all our concerns and MORE that kept happening throughout our stay they said they couldnt h

Front desk guy at check in should work on his attitude and customer service skills. And the owner should maybe invest in towels that look clean and fresh & into the hotel for adequate water pressure or maybe housekeeping shouldn’t give stained and dingy towels You will definitely get what you paid for if your looking at a $30 rate per night
