Dec 8, 2025

Room was extremely dirty. Like its never been cleaned walls were dirty and killed 2 roaches. Lights are sensored so any movement while sleeping they turn on including the restrooms fan. Beds have peices of dangerous bars sticking out in which i hit my right leg. I took pictures for proof. Parking lot is full of homeless walking around. Did not feel safe at all.

Pool and hot tub not working. Parking lot and entrance full of construction. Bare essentials in room. Noisy area. Smallest pillows I've ever seen. Won't stay there again.

The room itself looked as thought it was I. The middle of revamping. Hot tub outdated. Jets barely gave any sort of massage. No chairs just small table and bed. Top drawer of cabinet for clothes didn’t open and the light outside of the room flickered constantly throughout the night. You can hear everything all around. Best thing was the shower head in the bathroom.

The room was practically bare and the floors were covered with debris and stains. The beds were awful, the fan in the bathroom didn’t work so we had a ton of humidity and condensation, the parking was atrocious, the pool and hot tub were closed. There was trash everywhere and extremely sketchy people just posted there at all hours of the day.
