Stay anywhere else !

This is the worst hotel I’ve stayed at in many years. There was obvious black mold located in several places in my room (115). There was a small cluster of long black hairs in the fitted sheet. There was coffee but no coffee maker. My key had to be demagnetized multiple times.

Upon entering the room, a strong unpleasant odor was immediately apparent. The bathroom shower contained hair, the tub was dirty, and the toilet had a significant stain on the back ring. Additionally, there were stains in the back. Overall, the space was exceptionally unclean.

Where do I even begin? The room was so rundown. My key fob constantly wasn’t working. I requested new towels and bedsheets and got denied. It’s not worth your money to stay here.

Critter and dirty hotel

This hotel looked good in pictures. Checked in left our stuff and went out to enjoy our family time. Got back late and tired That when we walked into the bathroom there was hair on the bath tub, the ceiling had daddy long legs the shower curtain had like what looked mold. In the sink area we saw little ants and baby roaches. Plus they didn’t even take out the hangers that were left behind. On one of the beds the sheets were dirty that I we slept on our towels. We didn’t complain because it was late and the next day we left early to go enjoy SPI. We stayed 2 nights Friday and Saturday. Yet I guess it’s true what they say you get what you paid but even at that we paid about $400.
