I would never stay there again. It was disgusting. I do have pictures. The refrigerator had mold all all around the seal. The bath/shower had a big crack in it. My husband went down to get breakfast and when he went to get some juice he said when it started to come out mold came out with it.

We had someone in the room above us stomping around constantly- finally at 1:30am we went to the desk to ask them to move us to another room and their solution was to move us to the room next to the stomper. We left at 2am

There are some simple maintenance items that can be addressed in room 205. The safety rail in shower is totally loose. If someone started to fall and used it they would just go down that much faster. Desk chairs were in terrible shape; bent way out of square. I asked for a replacement and he brought a similar item. Took some doing to point out to him just how lopsided the both chairs were. Finally got one that was usable. Physical maintenance demonstrates the lack of commitment by owners to the place. Pool is in shambles and breakfast? Not a breakfast at all.

Unique theme rooms. Some small things that could use updated but overall not your average boring hotel rooms. Jetted tubs and saunas in theme rooms are nice.

We were allowed early checkin, which was greatly appreciated. I unfortunately didn't pay close enough attention to the fact there is not elevator, so if you have some mobility issues, please make sure they are aware. Our room was non smoking, but when you opened the door, there was a stale smell of smoke. Should be aired out and cleaned well. Be aware that the beds are fairly high, so if you are short, you may want to take a step stool. For the price, this was a decent hotel.

A lot of transients loitering around outside of building. They were staying in what looked like an old conference room in the building with lots of suitcases all over that room. They left the door open to that room which is how we saw inside. Pool is permanently closed and used as storage room for old computers and office supplies. Staff was hard to find. Our 1st room had a crack in the bathtub and wall was soft from damage. The 2nd room was ok but also had a tub crack but was patched. Tub would not hold water because the plug was broken. The bed was hard. Maybe the themed rooms are better but the standard rooms are not good. Ok for a cheap stay but would not book with them in the future.

The bedspread had 2 holes in it each time we stayed here..the room was so humid that our clothes and covers were actuality wet..we had to go buy a fragrance spray at the dollar store because the room kept a stinky cleaner smell that wouldn't go away. The bathtub would not hold water and had a 4 inch gash in it. I was excited to take a bath since my house does not have a tub.
