Dirty and disgusting. Think there was blood on the walls and the shower was too dirty to shower in. Don't know how this place is still operating.

Hotel was dirty and had bugs

I reserved this hotel for a group of student musicians who were scheduled to play at a church on Sunday. The feedback they gave me was that the lobby was full of cigarette smoke, the sheets on the beds had stains on them, the door didn't even have a door handle or a proper lock, they had to go buy bug spray before they could stay in the rooms, the bath tub had hairs in it, etc. etc. You should take this hotel off your list of offerings. It was just awful.

Only if you need a bed to sleep in

The entire place looks run down, but looks don't matter, it's on the inside, right? Well the inside is also somewhat run down, but not terribly so. This place could really shine with some renovations, but if you're the kind of person who needs everything to be aesthetically pleasing, this is not your place. If you're the kind of person who just needs a bed to sleep and don't want to be bothered you're entire stay this is it. What turned this place off for me entirely was that they gave another guest the same key to our room and they almost got it in. The hotel staff look nice though and seemed kind, although they all looked like they came to work in their pajamas.

This hotel has fallen on hard times

I can't tell whether the people running it are trying to fix it up or responsible for it's sad state. They don't seem very professional at all, so I am guessing the latter. The first room I was take to had a big visible hole in the window. When I pointed it out the woman seemed surprised like "oh is that a problem" Hot water and water pressure were a luxury not to be found and one of the towels smelled like it was dipped in a chemical solution.

Good and bad but I liked it

Not the fanciest place. Not the most modern. But the place has rustic character. If you are used to the Hilton then go somewhere else. There are multiple mineral pools and several hot tubs. The facility is pretty good sized and has interesting amenities that you really need to explore on your own

Not a good experience

Got there place was creepy. Charged extra for the kids. Ran credit card after I told her not to. We didn't even stay there and we're out $150. I wish I had read the reviews first they seem spot on. Don't know why expedia calls it two star. Should be no star. Hope this was helpfully.

Big Disappointment! Not a place I would recommend

There was trash everywhere. The hotel was under construction and not fully functional. The pools were not clean. There was gross smells like sewage. The doors to the rooms did not close properly. The furniture was old, in bad shape and upholstery stained & gross.

Intro to property = welcoming flowering plants. Interior of lobby/reception = messy, unkempt and off-putting -- most especially front desk which was chaotic, strewn with keys, paper, and, in short, totally unbusiness like. My Expedia hotel reservation was NOT honored. After driving for several hours and looking forward to checking in, instead I had to spend my own dime in contacting Expedia and getting the situation resolved. Hotel staff at this place did nothing but say they kept telling Expedia not to book people there.
