this was the worst hotel I've ever stayed at so much so me and my husband end up cutting our trip early and went home due to how dirty this place was. Everywhere you looked In the room you'd find either a dead bug or alive one. Hair from whoever stayed previous was still in the bed (as well as on the pillows ) when we arrived. Luckily I had an extra comforter in my car so we slept on top of the motels blankets and covered up with our own. The ac was old and didn't even cool anything down at one point the room got to 85 degrees try sleeping in that while 8 months pregnant. And to top it off we attempted to use the pool, as soon as my husband put himself on the stairs the whole structure let go from the wall and began to float in the pool while he's still standing on the stairs we then had to use the ladder at the other end of the pool to get in because the main stairs were so unsafe. We tried to avoid the motel as long as we could the following day because of how nasty it was but we eventually had to go back after being in the sun all day we wanted to rest but looking around the room we both knew that wasn't gonna happen and we agreed to pack our bags and drive the 2 hours home.

All the small details missed

Unfortunately we have several comments on the room. The price for one night was great, but what happened after, paying the extra money usually gives us a perfect stay. Bed was hard. I awoke with a stiff back/neck. Only two light fluffy pillows for a couple given. The refrigerator is right in front of the ac. It turned the whole refrigerator into a freezer. The remote control didnt work. Those little things makes you not want you to stay again. Thank you.
