Our tub was dirty in our first room. We went to tell the front desk and he moved us to another room where the outlets by the bed did not work in this tub was slightly more clean than the last but still dirty overall. We showered with shoes. There was also scraping above our room at 6 AM to about 8 AM on both nights we stayed. We also noticed dirt buildup by the AC unit and stains on the bed skirts of the beds.

This property is a scam the pictures are not at all what it looks like on the inside. We drove for 15hours the day of our trip and just wanted to go to bed instead we were welcomed to the smell of mold and mildew. We got to the first room and there were stains everywhere and cockroaches everywhere. And there was mold and what looked like black mold in the room. We went through 3 different room changes and all of them were the same. When we complained the the staff he didn’t seem phased by the fact the rooms where disgusting. He was as extremely helpful and understanding though we got transferred to a new hotel without having to pay for the price difference. But I do not recommend booking with this hotel.

I just wished the breakfast options each morning would have changed up a bit. At least add bacon, REAL orange juice and not Sunny D and freanch toast sticks. But front desk staff was amazing and available when I needed them. Rooms condition was worse than the pictures online and walls were filthy, had to ask to get a table or something clean by the front desk as cleaning staff was just chatting away.
