The pictures were definitely old or fake. We picked this location for the indoor pool but it was not in working condition but the whole 1st floor reeked of chlorine. The breakfast choices were very limited. It lacks effort and shows the corners that they cut in efforts to save money. Every time we pulled in the parking lot it was always a car or two parked with someone seating in there as if they were making drug transactions. Hotel was definitely not what I thought it would be. The good thing was that both employees that we interacted with were pleasant!

Breakfast was served late on weekends and no coffee available in the morning. So I didn’t get to eat. My room key didn’t work the second night. So I had to stay in line and wait 45 minutes for the new arriving guest to get a new card. Therefore list another hour of sleep. The cleaning crew left a bunch of hair in the tub and sink. Absolutely disgusting. I suspected they were using my room to take showers and wash their hair. Also all the caps were missing from my hair products. They were probably using them too. My laptop was unbuckled and appeared to be removed when I returned. Probably looking for money. Lucky they didn’t steal my laptop. They switched towels the 2nd night from full bath towels to medium used hair towels that were so thin , you could see through them. Therefore, they didn’t dry me off very well. I have photos of all the long hair left in the tub and sink. I’m sure they were using my room to use the shower and sink as I have short hair that doesn’t fall out. Also , shady characters hang out in the parking lot late at night and early in the morning. I saw a car missing tires and up on a tripod. So park at your own risk.

Overall the Hotel was nice and clean, unfortunately the Pool was not operating and I had a child with me looking forward to using it, furthermore, the shower curtain pole in our room was broken and the shower curtain would not close making the bathroom floor wet and slippery. Lastly, the toilet was not flushing properly.
