Never again

First off when we checked in there was no luggage cart. Ckerk had to go find the one and only one they had. Finally got one. We to our room which when we entered smelt of wet carpet. So the very nice clerk moved us across the hall to another room. It was better, but obviously its ok to smoke week in rooms. Next day we left for a bit and come back to our keys not working and someone entering our room with do not disturb or the door. They turn our ac to auto when i had it on bc i have to have it cold to breath and they messed with it and took and replaced towels. That is invasion of privacy. And keys not working is crazy. It happened at our last stay. There was a big gap above ac you could see outside. I have pictures Last but not least when we go to checkout, there is no luggage cart. And we had to lug all of our stuff downstairs bc the elevator takes 5 mins to go up and down. We usually use this hotel for our racers to stay when we come race but this was by far the worst experience i have ever had

I had work schedule issues so I was not able to travel so my wife, daughter and grandchildren made the trip. While the room itself was comfortable, they felt very unsafe coming and going from the hotel and parking lot. To many questionable activities going on in that area. We have family in this area and do travel there 2 or 3 times a year, but We will not be using this hotel again

The room's door latch would not engage properly and I had to be switched to another room. However, once the switch occurred, the rest of the stay was reasonable.

There was no one at the desk when we arrived to check in. Check in was fine after someone showed up. I am assuming there was a staff shortage. Our room was ok, but had seen better days. The remote for the tv didn't work, because there were no batteries in it. The employee at the front desk did give us another remote. The shower tile was very dated. Breakfast was average. The location was very convenient to the interstate highway and close to a few restaurants which was very convenient. We were ok for one night, but I would try somewhere different if I were to be traveling in this area again.

We was headed to the waterpark and we decided to stop here for the weekend since it was my daughter‘s birthday. The pictures online look like it could be a nice room, but when I tell you when we got to the hotel, our room wasn’t good from blood stains on the sheet And a dirty mattress. We got a connecting room in the lock had a hole in it and you can see through the other room. Even the sheers had stains on there. It was red. I don’t know whether it was dried blood stains or non!! It had holes in it as well!! There was a large stain on the night stand!! Then the bathroom vans was so dirty with dirt!! It wasn’t clean at all!! And then inside the tub was all kind of spot and it had a little mole on the side. I asked could we switch rooms and I was told that they didn’t have any available to check back the next day when I do check back the next day. They told me that they was full Asked to speak to a manager. They say his name was Jay and left my number and email with him so he can contact me for my trouble. He never did call nor email this hotel wasn’t what we expected we would not be returning again.
