Underwhelmed for the price

We only had one set of towels when we arrived. Coffee maker in our room did not work. Each new day we had to have our keys reactivated so we could get into the lobby for breakfast. No sitting chair in the room. One afternoon we tried to sit by the pool but left after a short time due to the noise of the power washer. When we returned to our room the floor in front of the door was wet from the power washer. The tub faucet dripped the whole time. It apparently has been dripping for a long time as the tub has rust at the drain.

The quality of the room and property upkeep were mediocre. We had to wait a few minutes for someone to arrive at the front desk (granted we did arrive at 11:30 PM). Our room had one towel. Surprised it had a 3-star rating.

Yikes

This was the most disgusting room I've ever stayed in and not at all how it was pictured. The room was filthy in every sense... walls with dirt & marking all over, couch was covered in stains, there were 3 empty 40oz beer bottles in one of the cabinets, shower was gross, some of the wiring for the tv just was a hole punctured through the wall eith tape holding it in place... just eww.

The room had a kitchenette, almost. No dishes, utensils, cooking items. You had to get them from the front desk. TV service was out. The room looked like it was in the process of being remodeled. Big holes where stuff would be installed. The property felt unsafe as there were many men wondering the parking lot and sitting in the stairwells smoking. Maybe because the TV service was out? We packed up, got a refund and left.
