Hotel was clean. Hotel location was great. Breakfast was not great and constantly out of stock. The restaurant tasted okay but portions were small for the price. At night the pool is horribly lit so it became a safety concern with littles.

I am extremely disappointed with my recent stay. There were several serious issues that should never occur at a hotel of this standard. First, I was told that I had to call the receptionist before 1:00 p.m. to ensure my room was added to the cleaning schedule. This is completely unacceptable and something I have never experienced at any hotel before. Second, the room was in poor condition. Several items were broken, including the bed and the headboard. In addition, both the toilet and the shower had severe water pressure problems. I was forced to call the front desk to request maintenance just to have the toilet unclogged. Third, the hotel clearly lacks proper upkeep. After 17 years, I returned to give this property another chance, but the overall condition shows that it is in serious need of a full upgrade. Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. Finally, the amount of body wash provided was inadequate—barely enough for one person, which is unacceptable. Overall, this stay did not meet even basic expectations.

The hotel is out dated. We got one of the better rooms and I’m glad we did because I couldn’t imagine staying in one of the standard rooms. The bathrooms are extremely small. The whole bottom floor smells like a school cafeteria because of the open floor plan. They kept the lobby cold the entire time we were there which kinda sucks because it made getting out of the pool almost unbearable. The pool and breakfast area are in the lobby area so by the time we got to our table from the breakfast line, everything was cold. Cold eggs, cold sausage, cold ham, cold French toast is not good. The oatmeal was made with water and no sugar. The waffle batter was dense and smelt like I stuck my nose in a bag of flour. The best thing I ate was probably the captain crunch cereal. The “arcade” consisted of a ping pong table and a foosball table in a room about 16ftx7ft big. There’s no lighting in the pool area either. Our toilet hardly worked. It took a lot out of the poor thing to flush properly. Probably part of the outdated issues I mentioned. When I walked in, it just looked old and dirty even though it probably wasn’t. The service signal sucks up in the Mountain View floor and the WiFi that they offer didn’t work almost at all. That’s probably why they still have DIRECT Tv. Like what the heck. Are we still stuck in the 2000’s. What are y’all doing. It’s 2026. It’s time to upgrade!! Also PSA if you stay at this hotel, bring your own towels cause theirs are rough! Felt like sandpaper :(

I would not reccomend this place. Best words to descirbe the entire place was dirty, grimy, old run down. We didnt even end up staying the 2nd night we already paid for and went somewhere else. It made me learn a lesson to not trust the reviews on expedia and to do my own research before trusting a "wonderful" property. This is a 2 star hotel at best.

Listen, you can totally stay here. I would categorize it as mid, more on the side of mediocre. Housekeeping will wake you up in the morning, screaming on the top of their lungs joking around and what not. Which is totally cool. I love that they are having fun. But right outside the room for three days in a row gets to be a little much. There won’t be any Wi-Fi when you stay there, I was very polite and asked for help and was completely dismissed by a gentleman on the Night Shift, who said that he was the most and I quote “ tec savvy guy their establishment had to offer” So I went down to ask him for help, and he literally looked at me and basically said “nah bro I’m good” So there’s a young lady there that was very nice and she helped me and told me to come back in the morning when there was a manager and that happened on Wednesday night. So I came down on Thursday morning, politely asking for a manager, unfortunately it was the Manager’s day off because the manager takes every Thursday off. However, unfortunately, that young lady didn’t know that within her own employment circle, which I find to be a little interesting. So I would say that if you wanna stay here for a mediocre price, horrific customer service, but you at least have somewhere to stay then go for it. I mean it’s not like the end of the world. But there’s no shot. I’m ever staying here again personally.

Maybe we were there at a bad time (New Years and inflation economy) but things seemed scaled back from a year ago. Internet unreliable, etc. Staff was wonderful though.
