Staff was great. This review is not pointed at the staff. They were very nice and helpful. Hotel is very outdated. Reminds me more of a motel. Bedrooms very outdated but clean. The bathrooms were not great. Counter top was very old and stained. The bath tub had silicone caked around the fixtures and the tub. The floors looks gross and we would not walk on them. Looks like bathrooms have not been updated in 20+ years. I wont return to this hotel unless all other options are taken and even then I may chooses to drive the almost 2 hours t9 stay at home. I would rather pay double and stay somewhere else.

Dog hair all over...i have a service dog and they put me in a pet room, which is not okay. Top bed covers wrre dirty and had burn holes in them. Pool was nice although freezing so we couldnt go in despite the weather being over 80° whwn we were there. Breakfast was coffee, juice, an apple or banana, waffles, cereal, yogurt or a fake muffin The hallway smells. Not a bad stay overall at a 2 star place. Staff were pleasant.

The room was in decent condition. It was very clean but dated and the bathroom definitely could use more attention. The back of the bathroom door had some type of permanent bleach or cleaning solution stains all up and down it, and the grout needed more attention to detail. But overall it was pretty good. The cleaning personnel were very sweet!

pubic hairs on the sink. the toilet paper was yellow on the bottom. thin blankets and tiny pillows. soap dish was not washed which makes me wonder if the soap has been changed at all. dusty bathrooms. bathtub was yellow. wondering if our room just wasnt cleaned before we arrived (despite checking in 2 hours early) since along with all of this a second tv remote was lying under the ac unit when we walked in. a housekeeper would have seen that, yes? the lady at the front was very kind and professional, however. no complaints about her efficiency. there are nicer offerings for about the same price in the area, im sure.
