We have stayed at this hotel many times in the last few years. We've always considered it a good value stay. This trip was met with a pleasant surprise! 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

(went to a store and purchased air freshener). Poor quality pillows and mattress and linens. Overall quality was very poor. 2 lamps in room would not functioning. Large stains on wall... More

We booked this hotel for 2 nights...we got there Friday night and were told that our room had been double booked and given to someone else! 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

We stayed here due to the cost and location to the sports dome. Uncomfortable issues with group booking procedures and language barrier. Very rude! Upon checking in, went downhill from there. Lights in pool area were not turned on even when children were present. Allowed children of other guests to run the halls all hours of the night, but made... 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

The place smelled like a mixture of cat urine and cigarette smoke throughout. Door locks broken, dirty, and not friendly. There was a pool but I would never consider getting in it. Obviously pet friendly.....according to the odor. Do yourself a favor and spend and extra 30 dollars to stay somewhere else. As frequent travelers we are changing Hotel brands. More

When I got my room, the door wouldn't open. Apparently, the last guest left the metal latch in the lock position. I tried explaining to the front desk person who was a foreign man. He thought the key wasn't working until I brought him down to look. Once inside, I saw a huge stain on the chair by the desk.... More

Room was decent and the bed was comfortable. Room was reasonably clean but not perfect. Breakfast was sparse. The owner/manager at the front desk is very hard to communicate with. The hotel is hard to find and he was not able to communicate directions to the hotel. Everyone in my group ended up with some form of spyware/adware/virus on their... More

My family and I stayed here for 2 nights. It was a good hotel. The price was reasonable. Not five star but we didn't pay for 5 star. No better or worse than any other midprice chain hotel. The room was clean. The pool was clean also. We have an elderly dog and did not want to board him at... More
