Disappointed.

When we checked in, we were put on the second floor and my wife has a problem climbing stairs. The spa was not working in the pool area. They did not have any pool towels , so I had to go to the front desk to get the towels. We missed have fruit and yogurt for breakfast. We had to buy a bar of soap as the one furnished broke apart. The bed was comfortable.

The owner was extremely rude. Very poor customer service. I called to confirm my reservation and he could not only understand what I was asking, he didn’t care, shouted “24 hour cancellation” multiple times and hung up on me and then wouldn’t answer when I called back. His strong foreign accent made it very hard to understand him but his attitude was the real problem. The common areas were not very clean and just run down. The pool looked dirty and the hot tub wasn’t functioning, looked like it had been broke for a long time. Made us stay on second floor even though we asked for first and it wasn't busy. No elevator. The back door was broken so you couldn’t exit. That’s a fire hazard. The toilet was dirty. The bedding smelled like bleach and that was the only saving grace of the whole place. I don’t leave bad reviews but this is experience left me no choice.

Pictures were inaccurate, not current on website. This hotel is a little run down. Air conditioner did not work in one room and owners did move us to a different room so that was nice. Breakfast had waffles and the coffee was good. Hot tub was not working. We did not use the swimming pool but it was open. We stayed for 2 nights and this hotel did make up the beds and clean room after the first day. All in all rooms were clean and price of hotel was good.

The hotel doesn't have an elevator. I was just released to start walking after breaking my leg. We arrived (prepaid) to find that I would have take the stairs because they didn't have any rooms on the 1st floor. Never thought I had to make sure a hotel, charging $200 a night, had an elevator. What if someone elderly or walker booked and now had nowhere to stay. The heat in the whole hotel, was uncomfortably hot. It was July, lobby had ceiling fans turned off, hallway only had 1 of 3 air conditioners on. Room was clearly

Was an average hotel, with a sub-par overall experience: Upon check-in (and needing anything) the staff is almost never attending the front desk; You’ll need to dial a number on a phone sitting on the counter - even if they’re sitting 10 feet away, watching TV in the back room. And when they come to assist, it feels like you (their guest) is a big inconvenience. I had this experience at check-in, also when we needed new sheets. We had to ask for new sheets, because sheets on one of the beds appeared to be stained from a previous guest. Then what I was given, was another pile of crumpled sheets - I had no confidence the new sheets were washed, as they made no attempt to even have them folded. The breakfast was also a sub-par experience, one or two selections of cold cereal, and milk and OJ in pitchers, which looked rather old.

Language barrier. Breakfast there wasn't much for options. The syrup must have been old, was VERY tacky like glue. Juices sat out on the counter and were WARM! Sheets were dirty so we slept on top of the bedding. Bathroom was dirty, mold in the shower area, mirrors were all dirty, towels stunk and the whole room stunk bad. The room was very dusty as if it hadn't been cleaned for a long time. Noone was ever at the front desk. Hot tub was not working. In the pool area, there wasnt extra towels only 3 towels out. Ants all over inside the pool area floor. Pricey for one night stay.
