The tub was leaking water needed to be fix, it was unsafe. At 2:00am I woke up to a strong smell of marijuana. They charge 57.28 deposit which was not disclose prior to payment. Breakfast suck, waffle machine was not working. I do not recommend this hotel.

Rooms were dirty and in poor condition. The mold and algae all over the pool room was horrific. Stank like a fish tank. The halls smelled of weed and smoke, the door to outside didnt lock.

Front desk clueless/not helpful

Out of the 5 nights stayed, got 1 night of good sleep. From the slamming of the door next door, that shook the room, for hours on end I can only assume nefarious activity.
