Digustingly filthy room!

Our room was completely disgustingly filthy! There was hair in the sink, it looked like the toilet hadn't even been clean with urine marks everywhere, the shower curtain had blood/fecal stain and material on it, the shower wasn't scoured, and the shower head had all sorts of debris all over it. The room wasn't vacuumed nor dusted either. I would NEVER stay at this place again and hope their ratings would reflect their absolutely disconnect to details. If you want to stay healthy, avoid this hotel at all costs!

The staff were wonderful. The breakfast was great. The surrounding property area was not well kept. My room faces the wooded area which was unkept. The outside patio area was dirty. The hallways and elevator smelled of smoke and mold. The rooms are a bit outdated for the price.

Run down and old. Desk employees were very friendly and helpful. Seems to be semi under renovations, but the room was very dated and smelled stale.

This is an old upgraded hotel. They do a good job of keeping it clean but we stayed on the 3rd floor and it smelled. The beds aren't comfortable unless you like your bed firm. Customer service was Awesome!

Hotel going through remodel. Poor management of the removed materials which made the place look dumpy. Believe our room had already been remodeled, but the quality of workmanship was poor. Things were very clean in the room, and the cleaning staff are to be commended.

There’s no pool … even though all the pictures show one. Apparently they closed during Covid and never reopened, and also never bothered to take it off their website. It’s okay, probably wouldn’t stay here again just because you could find something nicer around the same price.

★☆☆☆☆ Absolutely Disgusting – Do Not Stay Here This was hands down the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. As soon as I walked in, I was hit with an overwhelming smell of mold. It was everywhere. I thought it was maybe the carpets but it was in the elevator, our room, the bathroom. The bathroom was filthy. There was mold around the soap dish, in the corners, and all along the grout. The shower curtain was stained with what looked like old splashes of something unidentifiable. Nothing about it felt clean. Even the hallways were dirty, with visible grime on the walls and carpet. I felt uncomfortable and unsafe staying here and would never come back. Not to mention the headaches that my family and I had when leaving. I cannot express how this hotel smelt, it was absolutely the worst place I’ve ever slept in. Expedia should seriously reconsider listing this hotel. Avoid at all costs.
