Noticed stale smell when checked in. Left the room for dinner, returned, and when unpacking noticed black stuff on AC vent, which appears to be mold(?). Stain on ceiling appears to be the same. Staff says hotel totally booked tonight and can’t offer alternate room. Will request compensation.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
For the rates charged this was by far one of the worst places ive stayed & i travel alot & have stayed in some questionable places. The sewer gas smell is horrible. The cold water faucet for the hot tub literally came off, hot tub didnt work anyway so didnt matter. Pillowcases & sheets were dirty. Unless this is last resort i wouldnt recommend.

Receptionist was very kind and considerate of our late check-in, offering extended pool hours and recommending late night eateries near by. We were very weary of the dark location of establishment but receptionist calmed our worries and ensured us this was a safe location. We had no mishaps and will definitely be visiting again.

I messed up and made the reservation for the wrong day. The guy at the front desk made it happen for me, even though I paid through a third party. I can't thank him enough. The hottub was down for maintenance, but the 92 degree water temp pool and the suana more than made up for it. I'll definitely stay there again.
