We had roaches in our room, spiders in the shower, holes and openings in the walls where the roaches can get in and out, bed was stained and had mold and the room was soooo hot when we came in. We couldn’t even sleep until it was cooler. The staff was friendly though.

5 star bed!

Awesome stay for the price point. Whatever science they put into choosing the bed, bedding, and pillows, they need to teach all other hotels. Moat comfortable stay we had our entire trip.
