The room smelled of smoke, the lamps by the bed did not have plugs, not all outlets worked, staff did not help when asked (said they could not get me a plastic bag for my laundry because they were eating breakfast...the bag was never delivered). The pool is very small. I will not stay there again.

From the beginning the receptionist was rude practically through the room card at us not just that gave us the ugliest look while we walked into the lobby on top of that the room smell like mold had mold in the shower there was holes all over the wall cigarette Burns in the blankets and on the curtains
Not enough parking , no plumbing/ toilets won’t flush. Leaks. Dirty beds, bathroom and linen . Tv not working. No ventilation smells like smoke and number 2.
No room service had roaches. My door broke where I couldn’t get in. I went to the office. He told me to wait till 7 o’clock as he was asleep. It was crazy.
Bathroom had to be clean shower was very dirty floor was very dirty in the bathroom ! First time maid needs to clean better but like sands hotel very safe and peaceful! The owners are great ! Would recommend hotel to anybody !
