Convenient location. Best price in area. Staff was nice. Checkin and out was easy and quick. Air conditioning was very cold. Ample parking. Shampoo dispenser was empty. The bathroom had an extremely moldy, mildew smell. Basic bare necessities for one night stay.
Room floor was not moped the TV didn't work until the last night we was there and even then channels were very limited only one towel one wash cloth and one hand towel now don't get me wrong the place was OK I've stayed in worse and I like to think it was an oversight on the mopping but you could not walk barefoot cause for feet would turn black very fast other than that it was quite the bed was comfy check was fast price was decent over 3 and half stars out of 5
We found two roaches, went to two rooms because ours flooded, room smells like pee the one they relocated us to. All the covers have bad stains, and we didn’t even get a discount or extra night for it. Won’t stay again and the pool closes at 9 on spring break. Staff was helpful when there. They don’t have 24/7 Maintence just on call after 11ish until 6 pm which is crazy. First time ever I have been somewhere I have to call when my room is flooding and it’s not even my fought, it was coming from the floor!!!!
Great place to stay with your pet! Easy access to and from the main highway. No breakfast or elevator, but the rooms are very clean and comfortable to be in while you’re visiting!
Staff was great. Very easy check in. Hopefully check out goes the same. Nice clean room. Plenty of lighting outside and quiet. Definitely would book here again.
Room was good for the price. Clean and had a comfortable bed. Nothing fancy just a clean place to crash during my fishing trip. Lots of good food and fun things to do nearby
I would definitely stay here again. The property was nice & a bit off the main road, so it was quiet.

The checkin staff was wonderful! The cleaning crew was terrible!! There was no soap or shampoo in the dispensers. Luckily I always carry extra with me! Second day they came into room took three towels and left two, no hand towel or washcloths. I had to go get some. Floor was sticky and toilet looked like it had pee at the base of it. Also bed was not made when they came into the room. Ice machine did not work at all. Bed mattress needs to be replaced. Just was not happy with this hotel. The weather was great although we had to drive to the beach and no breakfast at the hotel. We did not use the pool it was too cool for that. I did complain to the front office. Oh and a fight broke out in the parking lot Saturday about 3 am!! Ugh!
