I've stayed here before so I know not expect too much, but you would think they would make improvements to the rooms and teach the staff how to clean a room. Bleach is over used. Bad when the towels smell like it. The tub and sink drained slowly. I found a straw on the bathroom floor. Beds aren't the most... More

This is by far, the WORST experience of my three-hundred days a year I spend on the road! Girls were knocking on my door at four in the morning asking for money, NO SECURITY, hallways reeked of marijuana, pool was cold with a slime over it as well as the hot tub. Went to "breakfast" and went to use the... More

I have read some of the review of this hotel and none of them have been my experience in the 6 weeks that I stayed there on business. I found the staff to be very friendly and attentive to all of my needs. The housekeeping staff always kept my room clean and comfortable and well supplied with soap, towels, coffee,... More

This hotel was selected by the family reunion committee & we had a whole wing of the hotel. First of all the the staff was extremely rude and obnoxious, the manager was argumentative & not very helpful maybe because our family took up most of the rooms in the hotel. When I arrived to my room & turned back the... More

This was by far the worst experience of my life. Upon check in, the staff acted like they were doing me a huge favor acting as if I were a bother to their routine. Room had a musty smell, soap and hair in the tub. Looking forward to a soak in the hot tub, found it to have a scum... More
