Kinda awful. Dated and noisy. Had to switch rooms when I realized I was surrounded by screaming kids and loud families who seem to live there. Then A/c didn't work, tub drain was broken, and elevator was broken. Be warned.

Horrible

It was horrible. Elevator did not work. We booked 3 rooms with 2 beds and they one had one the rest were single beds. We had to get 4 single rooms because the 2 bed room was on the 5th floor and my friend was handicap and could not walk all the stairs. Kids running around all over candy all over the floor trash all over. It smelled and tv remote did not work right. I felt like i stayed at the roach motel. The guy that checked us in charged me for 3 cars when we had only brought 1 car. The lady that checked us out had to fix everything. Then there is the continental breakfast.... there is none. Its a bagged breakfast.
