Never checked in! Did not stay! Their computer servers were down. Staff rude, said “ said, what do you want me to do”. Would not call anyone to rectify the situation. Very dirty lobby, trash overflowing. Fly strips hanging inside all room windows. Will contact credit card to dispute any charges-did not step foot in any rooms except lobby.

So many things turned me off about this property. Some of the more important aspects that need to be taken care of our safety and security. Upon entering our room room, the very first thing we noticed was that the door latch was not properly secured to the door that could potentially cause an issue for entering and exiting the unit while it’s unlocked. A big fire safety hazard if someone gets stuck in their room because the latch is catching on the couch plate. Also, the smoke detector was removed from the room, multiple plugs in the outlet and one had sheathing that was cut or torn, exposing wire. The bed was lumpy, toilet head, a mold, ring, dirty lampshade, switch plates and outlets. Both the mini fridge and microwave were dirty, and even though the floor looked clean, the bottom of my feet proved otherwise after taking a couple steps without my shoes on. The linens and towels seem to be clean. Wallpaper was peeling in many places in the unit. Several flies and gnatsin the unit, some dead in the windowsills.

I came for a concert that was at the fair. The room was very dirty, even the shower. The beds are horrible. There was no breakfast. Vending machines were empty. People were yelling down at you from the balconies, which is weird. I was grateful for the location though and I could just walk to the concert because parking was crazy for the fair.

Not the greatest.

The room was okay and bed comfortable. Bathroom small. There was not much in way of breakfast. You could hear people arguing outside until the morning hours.

Get what you pay for. Sheets had a few stains on the sides, bathroom wall and door was very cracked and just looked old and run down. We wore flip flops even in the shower as floors and shower didn't look very clean. Worked for what we needed though and only bugs were gnats.

The best I could do

The pool was closed, looked lile for a long time , the grounds were 3rd world as fas as cleanliness went it wasn't your regular Days Inn. It didn't look like the pictures in the travel brochures. The place was always packed , which means they make a lot of $$$$$, so hire some help to keep up on your investment. If you advertise a pool make sure its open.
