Dirty, noisy, breakfast pretty much inexistant. Pool was cold, bathrooms out of service, the whole place is a hodge podge of nasty smells. Found a dead flee in the bed. Nothing good to report.

Terribly disgusting. Not for families.
The room was missing things. The walls were horrible. The floors were disgusting. Everything was in terrible shape. Black mold in the room stained curtains no safety locks to inside hotel or in the room with young children. Fridge was taped up, 2 towels only. Totally not acceptable for adults less long children. Will never go back. Patronage in the hotel and outside was very sketchy also.

STAY AWAY!!!!
