Bed bugs. I was given room 106, upon entry there was bleach fumes so I aired it out and was suspicious. Decided to look for signs of bed bugs and found a live bug. Staff told me they have NEVER had them. Plus the bug was full of blood and it got all over my hands, had to message PCP on mychart about that. Rooms are dirty, they are not vacuumed behind beds etc its nasty. Anyway waz given 206, after having to insist on a new room, the guy working there really tried to say this has NEVER happened before. I found one dead one and larvae/babies. Returned to desk, staff then showed me a list of some kind that were treated for this and said they had treated them and begged me to try another room. I asked for a refund and instead he collected from expedia and cancelled my reservation and won’t answer phone. I panicked and didn’t take pics, take a chance if you want. I have zero reason to lie. This ruined my birthday trip. I barely had enough to find new lodging. He was fakely apologetic and lied about helping me get my money back from expedia because he took it. The place needs to be tented. Worse than lice. No breakfast, pools not heated and customer service person essentially lied and took my money.

We could hear the people in the rooms next to us all night. Plus the people in the hot tub right by the window. Needless to say, no one got any sleep. Also there is NO shampoo and conditioner.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The air conditioner was extremely loud all night, and it was basically impossible to sleep. There was only one chair in the room, and when I asked the front desk for an extra one, they told me none were available. Also, the water pressure in the shower was very low, which made showering really uncomfortable and unsatisfying.

The staff was wonderful and friendly. The rooms are nice and clean. The walls are a little thin so you can hear your neighbors, and outside however they provide earplugs if needed. It is very quiet at night. We enjoyed our stay.
