Fair price for a three star room.

About what we expected. A fair price and a fair room. Needs some attention, though. Bathroom door would not shut all the way. Night stand drawer was barely hanging on. Could have used some dresser drawers to put stuff into. None in room. Fridge and microwave were fine. AC and bed were great. We will probably stay here again.

Room was some what clean but carpets really dirty my feet looked like i had walked outside. Door was a little hard to open. Staff was friendly. Second day of our stay was woke up early by staff to move our cars due to something they were doing to parking lot. Then had the smell of hot tar all day.

there was no dining just coffee, no pool towels,no channel guide for the TV. No there was a rack to hang clothes but no hanger. The lady at the deck was nice and because there was nothing on the computer that showed my reservation. Lucly for me I printed the confirmation email which she used to check me in. Very thankful to her and all her help.

Not as advertised

We arrived at 7:45 pm with the expectation of hopping into the pool after a long car ride only to find out the pool had closed 10 minutes prior! It's summer vacation!!! Then in the morning we got up early enough to get the hot breakfast advertised only to be told they no longer offer it because it costs them money and business hasn't been good. The toilet was slow and noisy. However, the room was very clean and had a great mini fridge but no coffee maker. It also sported an actual Roku TV which was amazing.

Disliked: Cleanliness
I changed rooms three times. First room had mold on the walls. Second room had critters and no hot water or phone; no suitcase rack. A place for hangers but no hangers. Third room had critters too. And later find we had no phone. It had a suitcase rack. No place for hangers and no door hooks for robes or towels. The refridgerator worked great on the highest setting. The cold breakfast was not surprising at all. I saw no cream cheese for the offered bagels. You have to use a key to get into the cateria. There was nothing HOT about breakfast other than some microwaveable oatmeal and instant grits ot some toast. The guest laundry room was unavailable.That's a two hour slot for $7. Why wasn't there any cable? I like the easy accessible to my car, the area for my dog to walk.

Once we arrived, the room we had reserved was not clean. However, MARIA jumped right in and had it ready while we got a bite to eat. The room was clean and all i really saw was a need to be painted and bathtub didn't drain very well. Great place to stay with my dog. Has good area to walk and a small pin w/ shelter so one can sit at the picnic table on a sunny day and watch their dog play. For the price, we'll return.

This property was so disgusting! My daughter and I watched a drug deal on our way to the room. Our room was filthy!! There were dead bugs, the sheets were not clean, the shower had someone else’s hair in the tub on the floor in multiple places, the door handle to the bathroom was broken, and I could hear our neighboring room without even trying, My daughter and I did not stay longer than 5 minutes before checking out. We did not feel safe or comfortable to sleep whatsoever.
