First room was filthy asked for a new room and was rudely told no, but when I said I wanted a refund and I’d leave then another room was produced. Upon opening the door there was a half drunk cup on counter, bed was unmade and dirty towels in the bathroom. I have contacted hotel and Orbitz for a refund and gotten no where. I didn’t leave because of choice but they were unable to provide a room that was clean.

The hotel was DISGUSTING!!!! From the time I walked in to the lobby to check in, it smelt and the floor was filthy. When I went to my room, the shower would not stop leaking and flooded the bathroom floor for the two days that I stayed there. The only positive I have for this hotel is that the staff members were nice.

To be fair the lady at the front desk was super sweet and helpful. We had a two night stay and cancel the second night immediately upon arrival. The hotel is under construction, the first room we checked in hat insects all over. The second room was decent but enough to keep us there. The hallway was filthy and smell like mold. The pool is right in front of the hotel facing the highway. Do not recommend!

They changed our reservation from 2 queens to 1 king without consulting, we REALLY needed 2 queens. When we did check in, there was chewing tobacco in the trash and a cup with brown liquid in it on the counter. Pretty gross. The breakfast was good, and overall I guess not bad for what we paid.

Staff was very friendly. Hotel was dirty. Floors needed vacummed in lobby & halls. Trash, food, dirt on floor in elevator. 2nd floor had a "dirty sock" smell. We had 2 rooms...our room had paper debris on floor when we walked in. Room smelled musty & dirty. When we turned the AC on, the "old sock" smell was very strong. The 2nd room shower leaked water because the shower rod was put up too high on one end, so shower curtain would not stay closed & water ran out onto floor. That room had a musty smell as well. Found 2 bugs...1 in bathroom, 1 on kids tablet on desk. Back patio was littered with cigarette butts. Housekeeping and groundskeeping is NOT doing a very good job. We had also requested a playpen, which was not in the room. Front desk gave us one. We chose this hotel because of closeness to airport for early flight...but will not stay again.
