Not great

Hotel staff handed out a piece of paper upon check in that stated no speakers by the pool and that the pool closes at midnight. Both nights I was there people were partying in the pool until well past midnight with no one enforcing these rules. Every time I tried to call the front desk no one answered. No towels for the pool either. Upon getting into my room there was a sign saying how they had an insect problem, so I was immediately unsettled and freaked out that I was gonna see some bugs. The AC was so old and had to stay on blast the whole time. Not great.

I booked two rooms that said they sleep three each. When we arrived each room had one king bed and they had no third sleeping space and no rollaway beds. Three people who are over six foot two had to sleep sideways on a bed it was ridiculous

My GF and I stayed here the wknd of 06/13 & 06/14 we have stayed here previously and we ENJOYED it and that is why I booked it again. Unfortunately this time the room we got had a little problem with the sink the water would stagnate,take long to drain and to make matters worst we encountered a HUGE roach i our room.

Although this is an older hotel, and despite the many times we've stayed here before, we've never encountered any issues. If you’re fortunate enough to relax at the pool, I want to give a special shoutout to an employee named Richie, who provided outstanding customer service. Thank you, Richie, for your exceptional service.

I've stayed here many times & it's always positive. This past weekend, I had a one night stay. I hadn't seen the bathroom well after checking in, and found there was blood on the wall, the tub, by the bathroom trash can & the shower curtian. I also found a speck of blood on the lampshade in the room. I know I should have reported it immediately, but I didn't want to make a big deal as it was late & was just one night. I cleaned up the areas myself, except the curtain & lampshade because I was not gonna use it as is. There was no way you could miss the blood if you cleaned the room. Little drops, very visible and obvious. I just want staff to know that room 203 was not cleaned at all & this is very unsanitary. Please throw the shower curtain away and look into this.
