Picked the location because of the pool for my girls. Disappointed it was dirty and full of leaves. The hotel is outdated in some areas compared to others in the area. The room was average, there was a big stain walking into the room, the windows were very dirty growing algae. The restroom was not as clean as we hoped. Only stayed one night, for the price we would stay some where else next time.
