The staff was nice and accommodating. That is my only compliment. The property in no way appears as the photos show. Dilapidated, dirty rooms, door wouldn't even security bolt and appears like a low income housing development. The location was decent but all else was below standard and not as advertised. Very disappointing.

This is not the condition of the hotel pictured on the website. They lied! What is worse, they denied me my $125.00. I showed up and said a hard no, and they told me that I could not get a refund because they don't give refunds. I contacted Hotels.com, and although I had to speak to several supervisors, I was finally able to get my refund. Thanks to Hotels.com for protecting me. This hotel should be removed from the vendor list! This is not as advertized!

I notified the motel that we would be coming in late on Saturday evening right now. It’s 8 o’clock on Sunday morning and nobody has been here to open the door for us. We just spent the night in our car and I am 69 years old We also have three more days to stay at this hotel and I really don’t want to stay here. We need a refund for tonight last night and the next three nights please contact me at 256-701-1902.

This place is the epitome of "ghetto"! We reserved a non-smoking room and our room reeked of cigarette smoke. The girl at the front desk said she couldn't smell anything. There was one towel, one washcloth, a floor towel and no hand towel. The room had NO blow dryer, disposable cups, coffee maker, fridge, microwave, chair, desk, phone,or a place to hang out clothes. The only place to charge our devices was a clock that didn't work. The bed spreads had stains on both sides. My husband went to take a shower and threw up when he looked at the drain. It had a bunch of something (?) in it. The property was filthy...garbage and cigarette butts everywhere. They photographed my husbands license and credit card, which he told the girl he wasn't comfortable with and she said it was "company policy".

Rented the 2 bedroom apartment for Friday and Saturday. Upon check in the kitchen sink was clogged and full of nasty water. They didn’t have staff onsite to fix it for the entire stay, which ruined the idea of I’ll save myself some money and cook there instead of eating out every meal. the roof is water damaged in one bedroom, both bedrooms had stains on the sheets, scratches on doors and walls and general damage on the furniture. the beds felt like they were just pure springs no real padding, the pillows were more like throw pillows for a couch. the window ac units are filthy and damaged. I caught a fever from being in this room for two days. The night check in clerk was a positive note, she was friendly and did bring me a plunger to see if we could clear the sink. She also called to confirm we would be checking in Friday night. The Saturday morning person was not friendly, I think she was the manager and lied to me about being the manager. I voiced my concerns with her Saturday morning and she disregarded them completely.Durning check out the same attitude was present. This person doesn’t belong in a hospitality position if they can’t be at minimum considerate and polite. The annoying part was she had the nerve to tell me the owners and I won’t give you a discount for anything because you already got a good price when you booked online. The unprofessional service from this woman was absolutely jaw dropping, go to the casino Might cost a little more but better service.

Deceiving and false advertisement

We arrived at 6:45pm they gave us the key and the beds were bare and there was cleaning sprayand dirty papers towles no clean towels. The room was not ready. We agreed to wait for it to be ready. We got back at 11:45pm and the room was worse than it was at 6:45. Now there are bed sheets on the chair, a 6pack of beer and a fountain drinkbfrom thebgas station mavrick. I have never had this experience we were tired my kids were tired as it was midnight when they said theyd get the room ready. That meant they would put the bedsheets on, that was it. No cleaning just bedsheets. Its smelled like poop outside as we walked upstairs. The cleaning lady yelled at us that shes only 1 person and doing the best she can. Which mind you check in was at 3pm and it was 6:45. We just said maam there are no bed sheets we did not argue we were okay, just letting her know we were missing sheets. We have two videos from 6:45pm and the 11:45 pm one aswell. I wish to be contacted by someone who will make this right. A $10 credit does not make up for the terribke night we had. We had to stay at a casino which cost us almost $200. We had 2 more couples with us and told them to come to the hotel for a room only to be embarrassed by all 3 rooms and they refused a bottom one for my handicap mom.

I could tell as soon as I arrived that the place was a dump. I walked into the office, there were three people in line ahead of me to check in, and it took half an hour to get my key. The room was acceptable, but only just. Not very comfortable at all. The pool was closed for "routine maintenance." On Labor Day Weekend? The water was so filthy it was clear they weren't keeping up with it at all. And with the pool deck locked, there was no other spot on the property from which I could see the river view. I complained to management and they told me they'd sent out an email ahead of time mentioning that the pool would be closed. This is a bald-faced lie; I have their email and it says the exact opposite. When I went to check out the staff initially tried to make me wait till they'd inspected the room. When I rolled my eyes they snapped at me. Rude, incompetent, unprofessional, and dishonest. I can't remember the last time I've felt so ripped off.

Reserved for 2 nights. Checked out one night early. The beds did not have clean sheets. There was hair from the previous tenants. The pillows had a yellowish tint. The shower had water coming from the top and the spout at the same time. No fridge was provided even though it was requested. Fire alarm low battery went off at 3am. Turned in the alarm and battery to the front desk. Ice machine did not have ice. Continental breakfast consisted of make your own peanut butter jelly and granola bars.
