"Good value!"

10.0

It felt safe and was quiet and relaxing with a nice view. Guests and staff were friendly. Pool was clean and staff took pains to save the frogs that fell in at night. It was great having a closet.

There was no microwave. Parking a bit cramped. It would have been nice if the A/C was turned on prior to arrival since it was over 90 degrees that day.

"We will not stay there again, felt unclean."

3.0

Mattress was comfortable

Some towels had brownish tint compared to one white towel. I put the brown towels on floor for maid & when we came back it looked like the same towel had been folded & put back in place. The trash cans were not emptied either. Some of the pillow cases were noticeably brownish compared to others. They need to bleach. The chair was dark colors & slick dirty look. We sat on the bed.

"Never would stay here or tell my worse enemy about it either."

1.0

Nothing

Place was unsafe and no parking. Dark & no lights. It is by rentals, campgrounds and just plain awful. My husband wouldn’t even let a man stay there let alone woman or kids. I don’t know how it rated but it looks scary. It was too dark to take pics last night we had our brights on to see where to even drive. We went back the next day to see if any better in daylight. We went to 2 other hotels near by 1 full so they recommended another and they said they get people coming to them from this place as bad reputation in this town. Bad news.
