“On the Blacklist”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2011

We stayed here due to the cost and location to the sports dome. Uncomfortable issues with group booking procedures and language barrier. Very rude! Upon checking in, went downhill from there. Lights in pool area were not turned on even when children were present. Allowed children of other guests to run the halls all hours of the night, but made the adults talking in lobby be quiet (we got shshd several times) during the noon hour. Many more issues as well. Have stayed here in the past and never had any issues. This hotel has now been "blacklisted" from our team.

“Find another hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2010

That's what we just did. Their rooms were filthy. I don't swim, and would never consider using a pool to a pet-friendly hotel. Now to the worst part about this hotel. Their beds are infested with fleas. You could literally feel them crawl across your legs. My roommate woke up with a tick. I tried to switch rooms and complained to the front desk, but their managerial skills are lacking due to the language barrier, and wouldn't give us two singles or any other room for that matter. We had checked into 7 rooms and 3 had problems with fleas.

“Disgusting”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2010

The place smelled like a mixture of cat urine and cigarette smoke throughout. Door locks broken, dirty, and not friendly. There was a pool but I would never consider getting in it. Obviously pet friendly.....according to the odor. Do yourself a favor and spend and extra 30 dollars to stay somewhere else. As frequent travelers we are changing Hotel brands.

“Very bad hotel would not stay again!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2010

When I got my room, the door wouldn't open. Apparently, the last guest left the metal latch in the lock position. I tried explaining to the front desk person who was a foreign man. He thought the key wasn't working until I brought him down to look. Once inside, I saw a huge stain on the chair by the desk. The desk was sticky like someone spilled pop. The bathroom counter was cracked. Front desk woman was asking how I got so cheap of a rate when I checked out. She kept questioning me and said I should've been charged more. What a nightmare!

“beware of hotel internet”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2010

Room was decent and the bed was comfortable. Room was reasonably clean but not perfect. Breakfast was sparse. The owner/manager at the front desk is very hard to communicate with. The hotel is hard to find and he was not able to communicate directions to the hotel. Everyone in my group ended up with some form of spyware/adware/virus on their computer after using the free wireless internet.
