The bathtub and toilet were quite dirty, we were supposed to have a nonsmoking room and instead we were stuck with a smoking room (absolutely disgusting!!!!) The beds were horribly uncomfortable, I think they've been there since the place was... More

Shilea, I read your review and apologize that you were not pleased with your recent stay with us. We are in the "Process of renovating, we just had the new carpet replaced, and I am in the process of painting rooms, I do the work myself so it takes a while to get 48 rooms painted. I apologize that you... More

The new management of the hotel has put in new carpet and upgraded quite a bit of the hotel. The rooms were very clean, the pool area was spotless. The management... More

I called several other hotels (all of which were full because it was Labor Day weekend), while my husband "discussed" our reservation with the front desk guy. He finally said that he found a... More

That's what we just did. Their rooms were filthy. I don't swim, and would never consider using a pool to a pet-friendly hotel. Now to the worst part about this hotel. Their beds are infested with fleas. You could literally feel them crawl across your legs. My roommate woke up with a tick. I tried to switch rooms and complained... More
