This place was cheap very dirty things in the room were broken and not fixed. Flooring was old and cracked/chipped. Really small bath towels. Bed sucked. The heater made loud noises. Over all dirty but very cheap.

I did not enjoy receiving a call at 3am to ask if we were the ones making noise. I was looking forward ti my slumber after a long drive and the random wake up call accusing us of being loud really ruined it for me. Need to get a refund

Were do i start, and the pool is full of lamp shades (where there day one, and then day three when we left). We saw homeless people washing up in the pool the second day, told the woman cleaning rooms either didnt care or didnt understand me and just noded and smiled. Said has a breakfast but is down the room is for down for maintenance. I ask a lady who did speak English and she didnt know how long its been down but she said "awhile" laughing and cheerful. So glad two of the offers part of the room was not available. Over all would never stay here again.

No one at service desk, had to call a number to talk to someone, they put my deposit through credit card, now it posted exchanged from can dollars to US dollars with the exchange fee. Why not just pre authorize then hold till check out then cancel like everyone else for Pete’s sake. Now I have to wait for a refund that will probably cost me more money with exchange rates and fees. Not happy with poor customer service

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Floors were dirty. The wall had a booger on it. The toilet didn’t stop making weird noises all night. The bed sheets were dirty. The heater didn’t work. The front door didn’t seal fully. There were holes in the wall in the bathroom. The light fixture in the bathroom was being held up by tape.
