Meh.

The hotel rooms were small, but fine. The queen beds were definitely not queens. They were smaller as well. Our reservation got messed up somehow, so they ended up putting us in two rooms across from each other for the first night, which was fine, but then we had to go pack up and move the entire family to a different room the next night, which is not ideal when you have a full day planned in between.

My main issue was some aspects of the room, whoever cleaned it before our stay was not thorough. There was wads of hair on our bedroom part of the floor , the shower amenities were refilled but the holders had so much built up mold it was black and gross. I felt uncomfortable like was my bed clean? They had some kind of white hand marks on the bathroom wall was kind of weird. Definitely wish checking wasn’t so late that is crazy!!

Persons with bad backs should stay away.

The mattress was very soft, lumpy, and sagging and ever move in the bed caused loud a loud squeak. I have a marginal back and laying down normally makes my back feel better. In this case my back was worse in the morning. The in room clock needed to be reset and when I asked the front desk person how to do it, she acted as if she was surprised there was a clock in the room and did not offer to get someone to help me get it set on the right time. My wife labeled the motel as "never again".
