Bathtub was nasty and it was missing pieces in the jacuzzi tub we cleaned it with a towel and took the towel which was brown from the gunk in the tub to the office and they said they were gonna clean the room while we were gone and they never came back and cleaned it

"Horrible, do not stay here."

3.0

Tye front desk staff was friendly and professional.

The pool was disgusting. Looks like it is crumbling into disrepair. It is concrete and has been painted over. The paint was chipping off and floating around the pool and the concrete was crumbling into pieces. I am seriously worried that the family I saw swimming in it might get lead poisoning. The other pools in the adjacent properties that were open for us to use were just as bad. The room was less then satisfying. Wall paper had been painted over in the bathroom and you could see the old design underneath. The towels had a strange musty smell. It felt and looked dirty. Also, the TV was very small and the inside liner of the lamp shades were falling apart. Practically nothing was plugged in including the clock which didn't even have a USB port to charge your phone. The pillows were the most lumpy uncomfortable pillows I've ever had to sleep on. Honestly, I will never stay at this place again.

No breakfast at all.

Outside light fixtures hanging. Floors were dirty. Mattress must have been from 1950. Went to take a shower, water was brown, tub wasn't draining. Hair in shower. Bugs on the floor. Swimming pool was green and closed. We took pictures of some of it. The pictures on line of rooms, were not from our room.

The room smelled musky and some mold on walls (small amount). The floors had grit (sand I think) when I walked barefoot on them. Bath and sink were clean. Bed was very comfortable.
