First and last time staying at this hotel

For the price I paid I was really expecting something decent but this place reminded me of a motel 6. To start out bathroom had no toilet paper or shampoo. The room was so old and dated it was kinda disgusting to be honest. Mold in the shower and the toilet would keep running everytime we flushed. We had one good outlet that worked in the whole room to share between 3 people. The final straw was when house keeping walks into our room at 930 on our checkout day without even bothering to knock

We were charged a $75 “deposit” they didn’t say what it’s for just that it’s refundable plus a $12 amenities fee which looks like it was included through Expedia. Their pool is closed so we can’t use it. Rooms smell like paint and dust.

We loved this place so much that we returned for our latest trip. It was unfortunate that our shower was clogged that couldn’t be fixed…but was accommodated and upgraded to the honeymoon suite. We were so excited and didn’t mind having to pack up everything and move in the middle of the night…but, we were met with a horrible crashing sound that happened like every 30 mins throughout the day. Heads up to anyone staying in that particular room. We were lucky enough that we always bring the white noise machine for the kids, so we blasted it so that the crash sound was not as drastic when it happened during our sleep.
