1st time stay!

We were in town for the Magic City Mimosa Festival and needed a place to stay for the night. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms were nice and clean. The front desk agent was nice and very helpful. And the hotel was in a nice and quiet area. I look forward to staying at this location again.

First room we were given hadn’t been cleaned. They swapped us to another room next door. Went to the pool and no towels, after we were told the pool towels were at the pool. Went back in to get pool towels and was given ONE. “So sorry, that’s all we have” is literally what I was told as I was being handed the towel. Breakfast was typical hotel

The room was adequate for one night. It wasn’t necessarily the cleanest room and the bathroom smelled like smoke. There was also a hair extension located in the corner of the room.

Robin

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Immediately had safety concerns bc property isolated on a dead end street. The front desk employee was friendly, but check-in should have been quicker bc I was the only one at the desk. Upon opening the room door, the odor slapped me in the face. It was warm, musty, dank, & the carpet next to the bed was damp. There was a broken fingernail & a pubic hair on the toilet set. Stayed long enough to reserve a room at another property. Left key in front desk key drop off bc no one was at the desk. The other customers were loud in the hallway & could hear others through the wall. Checked out within 30 minutes of checking in
