My room had holes in walls. Everything was falling apart. It was horrible I could hardly get the shower water on and off because the shower knobs were all broke and falling off. There was no door on the bedroom area.

The room was extremely rundown. The bathroom was a disaster. The knobs for the shower/tube were stripped. I could barely get them turned on. The plaster was broke
Somewhat satisfied with stay. Our room was nice but having booked and paid for a sweet with Jacuzzi tub and the tub not working was very disappointing. We had our dogs with us which was great and we are very responsible owners having cleaned up after our dogs my husband still stepped in poop and tracked it up in the room. Whether or not people clean up you should still keep an eye on the property if you are allowing pets.
Overall it was okay.

It was way over priced for such an old hotel. The bathroom was tiny. My bathroom in my 5th wheel is bigger. Room was clean. The beds were comfortable. Door was missing the inside safety catch. The refrigerator worked well and the freezer did not. Definitely not worth the $170 dollars a night. It is across the street from the water and the view is blocked by the hotel I should have stayed at.

The room was OK and seemed to be clean. There were several minor maintenance issues, including a missing outlet plate (dangerous) and a drippingshower/tub faucet. One really minor issue was that the provided TV channel listing guide was not accurate.
The manager of this property was so rude to everyone in our group. The room was not what booked. It was run down the hot tub was dirty. It was an all around awful experience.

Not the best
We have stayed in hotels often recently and this is the only one we have stayed at that is not updated at all. Bed wasn’t very comfortable, bath tub was old, even an old alarm clock that didn’t work. It wasn’t nasty. Just not very nice. It is also the only one that charges a $100 deposit.
Room was gross outdated and spiders in the corners. Would not recommended staying there.

Did not appreciate early check-in charge went just about an hour before 4 o’clock check-in paid extra for the dog fee. Hardly anybody at the place at that time you think they could come.
Mrs. Stacie is a great employee. All of the staff made my stay pleasant and memorable. I am forever grateful for their understanding and unyielding desire to make this stay one of the best I have ever had.
