Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel lobby smelled like marijuana. After day 2 the entire first floor smelled like that, too. The room was dirty. The refrigerator had jelly or something on one shelf. The bathroom had a long black hair hanging down off of one of the towels. No way they could not see that. The toilet had a nasty yellow ring of crud around the base. Gross. The panel across the counter in the bathroom had not been cleaned in months or possibly ever. I stayed because I was working and moving out of my house so I wasn't in the room much. But I will Never suggest the hotel to anyone as a place to stay.

Hotel was adequate for one night, but would not choose to stay here again. We were initially given a room key for a room that was already occupied. Not an ideal first impression to walk into someone else in your room. We were assigned a new room which smelled of stale smoke. Pool and hot tub were nice. Breakfast had a limited selection but was available, only until 9am so don’t sleep in.
