Dump
It was dirty!!! The room was so cramped you couldnt even walk in it. We stayed mainly for the pool which was not even opened. The girl let us use the pool at the hotel next door which was co owned and it was fullnof bugs and dirt. The pictures looked great online but the place is a total dump.

Bed bugs!!!
I can tolerate hundred of ants in the bathroom and a few on the bed. I can tolerate a few other bugs in the bathroom. I can even tolerate all stains on the mattress. But there are bed bugs everywhere!!! Really regret to stay here to save a few bucks.

There was no stay. There was a couple wanting to check out they had been moved out of a room previously, and then was still wanting to leave because of “bugs everywhere” well the check in I believe manager had already put my card information in when I heard the couple had been moved from “207” which was now the room they were putting my kids and I in. They was trying to get their money back, and the manager made a point in saying once you check in that’s it. So, I did go up to look. The smell was awful, and yes it did smell like weed. There was what I believe to be black mold pieces

Okay but will probably not refer to a friend.
On the webpage the property looked more updated and stated it offered breakfast. The breakfast was literally toast, bagels and waffles and cereal. We stayed 3 nights and had to go get towels and toilet paper, the rooms never had anyone come gather trash, dirty linens or anything of the sort. The pool was decent although it always had bugs in it. and after the holiday the yard was not picked up from the guest. The beds were comfortable, and the rooms were small. the guest above us, the children were running around after the calm down time stated as being 9pm. like 12am late.
