This business should not be open for service. It looked like they were renovation the whole hotel. There were mattresses and furniture cluttering the hallways. The bed sheets were not clean. There was a dumpster in front making the area ghettoish. Although the breakfast options were nice, I would not stay there again if they were still like the conditions we had.

We had 2 rooms, our kids' room had mold on the shower curtains and the refrigerator didn't work and it smelled really bad. Our room didn't have a trash can and the air conditioner was old and didn't blow out cold air. There were stains on the bed covers and sheets. The rooms had a very weird smell as soon as you walked in.

Unfortunately the halls and elevator were filthy. Literaly crushed coffee cups and qtips on the floor. When we got to our room it smelled, and was hot and muggy. We found hair and a small ant IN OUR BED and a few mystery stains on our sheets. Thankfully no bedbugs. Everyone had a verey difficult night sleeping bc we felt so unclean. I'm not one to leave bad reviews, but this was NOT a comfortable stay at all.

The hallways were dirty & littered. The hotel was under renovation , however the dirt was not from that,(qtips, drink cups & debris).It was 90 degrees outdoors & when we got to our 3rd floor room , the window was wide open & the AC wasnt even plugged in.Our comforter has a big yellow spot on it.Told the person at the desk about these problems, and he said "sorry ". Breakfast was a lot to be desired. The banana was the best part of it.

Never book this place
Run down damp old carpet from humidity. Nothing is being maintained. Trims missing could see into the wall in bathroom where trim was missing. Blow dryer didn’t work. It was just plain creepy place. Never again.

Thank goodness we were only in this building less than 12 hours. The building smelled bad. There were a LOT of people just seemingly loitering around the parking lot. The room was SO hot and stuffy when we arrived. Stains on the pillows and bathtub. Someone had tied a plastic bag around the smoke detector. The tv looked grainy. But…it’s a convenient location for The Lost Island.
