Cons (-) The hotel couldn't find my reservation even with the reservation number and apparently can't look them up by last name. It smelled horrible and wasn't clean. The fire alarm was falling off the wall. The shower spicket was also falling out. Bed was dirty and not comfortable. Also did not feel safe at this hotel. Would not stay here again or recommend.
Pros (+) This was the third time my family and I have stayed here. It's not the brightest or shiniest hotel. But, for the price, location, and indoor pool and spa, you can't go wrong. The staff was kind and courteous. We will be coming back next year when the kids visit their grandparents.
Pros (+) The air conditioner.
Cons (-) The smell, dirtiness, noise, lighting, amount of outlets, small bathroom, etc..... disgusting.
Pros (+) While it cannot be considered high class or luxury, the facility is comfortable and clean. The staff is helpful
Cons (-) Heater/air conditioning systems are funtional but old and a bit noisy. Breakfast is seriously limited.
Pros (+) Convenient location, nice indoor pool, low cost
Cons (-) Rude, not people-friendly staff from manager on down; dirty/old carpet in open areas; general appearance of not keeping up with maintenance.
