Think twice

This hotel had many issues: The first was the musty smell in the rooms along with the mold on the walls. We had lights burned out that no one ever came to change, The security chain was not attached to the wall and the key card only worked after several tries. The room had someone else's garbage on the floor that stayed all week it also had stickers on the wall that came off easily however the room service never removed it. The room had the previous person's suitcase key and checkout paperwork which showed the number and name sitting on the table when we checked in. There were gecko's or some little lizard that got into the rooms and eventually dried out on the air conditioner but was never removed. The rug was ripped and did not meet the wall in several places just showing the cement underneath. The gift shop that was advertised was closed and in dissarray looking like a ghost town with candy and gum still displayed. The wireless internet was nonexistent. The play ground was broken and had garbage all around it with rotten wood over the spot when the slide is missing. We had a huge crack in the ceiling. The ice machine did not have a out of order sign and did not work, it had dusty grease all over it. The bar by the pool was covered by a tarp and never open. All the pool chairs where broken and were only good for putting towels and shoes on. The Restaurant only offered breakfast that you have to pay for and was not appealing food looked as if it was reheated several times. When we crawled into bed the first night there were old band-aids in the sheets. When we called to have the room changed we were not given any options, they were all the same. We called the corporation number and was told that we needed to talk to the individual franchaise. We ended up taking the sheets off and just washing them ourselves. We also got a bottle of bleach and some lysol and cleaned the room so that I could feel comfortable staying there. Every night there was a scratching at the door of a local pizza place sticking in flyers. Kind of annoying. The positive was the pool was clean and warm, The air conditioner worked to cool the room and keep the humidity down, it was a great location, the beds were made daily (even if you asked them not to) and new clean towels were replaced. Most of the personal was friendly. Overall it is cheap and you are getting what you pay for. If you go here give yourself time to clean the room with some bleach.
