Our room was in good condition with a microwave and fridge/ freezer. It was a reasonable price without breakfast although reception sell a few drinks and chocolate snacks. Unfortunately I did found a long dark hair in the bed maybe from the house keeping team making the bed so I just removed it. Maybe more care of this but the room was very clean otherwise. Free Parking felt safe. The pool hasn’t been used for a long time so would be good if this was in use again in the future. Would def stay again. Reception staff were friendly.

Rooms were nice but the amount of spider webs and bugs was just ridiculous. Upon entering the room it smelled horrible and there was so many webs in the corners and near the a/c. My daughter dropped something by the bed and when she went don’t to get it she noticed a huge amount of webs under the bed and dead bugs in the webs. We had so many dead crickets and spiders on the walls. The pool was not working and was dirty as well. When we arrived the person in front desk couldn’t understand nothing we were trying to tell him. Just overall a bad experience.

Upon arrival of the hotel we had a quick & easy check. We noticed only one side of the hotel rooms were available. Upon getting in the room, we seen that the sheets were stained & there was a left over beer can that froze in the refrigerator & the plate for the microwave was missing. I brought this to the front desk attention & was advised to get new bedsheets. The towel rail was broken & there was a lump in the floor as if the floors were not done properly. The front desk advised us to change our room after we notice the 2nd pair of sheets that were given had even bigger stains. The second room was okay but we were so glad we stayed just the 2 nights. This hotel needs to be shut down!!!
