"The most horrific hotel ever."

Nothing, it was the worst hotel we have ever stepped into.

Everything was horrible, there were bed bugs, blood stains on the mattress, the shower didn't work, and the rooms had not been cleaned when we got into our rooms.

Placement and price. Probably second nicest bed at a hotel I've slept on. Balcony view was also really nice.

Stains in the bath tub. Rust splotches from the drain and such.

The only good thing was the location, but there’s many other options in that location. I just made a poor decision by booking that one.

Very overpriced the TV was broken. Couldn’t watch TV. The showerhead didn’t work correctly and it leaked definitely needs to be remodeled

Not much

The room was… gross. Disgusting shower/bath. Not the kind of place where you want to set toiletries on the counter. They cancelled our original booking of a double king suite due to “water damage” and downgraded us to a double queen standard with no discount of any kind- just the standard fare for the new room. It was a bit suspicious when we checked in and asked about water damage that caused an issue if this nature that none of the staff had a clue what I was taking about…(did we just get downgraded to accommodate another guest?!)… We woke up to take the kids in the hot tub and pool. The “hot tub” was about 85/87 degrees. No note stating it was having issues and nothing mentioned to us by the staff at check in when we asked about pool hours. On top of that the hot tub had a gross sulphuric smell and was quite dirty. Overall it was a pretty dumpy little inn that charged us $250 for a nights stay. I can’t remember the last time o stayed in accommodations that were so lacking. I would NOT recommend this to anyone and would suggest booking.com to remove it from their list as it tarnishes the otherwise good experience I have come to know and trust with booking.com
