I would never recommend this place to anyone, had to stay because every other hotel was booked. Terrible service, when we told front desk staff that the room was dirty and the chairs were halfway broken she told us “oh okay I’ll have the Mexicans go and do it”. Which they never did, had to go to Walmart to purchase towels because all there towels were dirty and when we asked for new clean ones they did not have any at all. They stopped answering are calls when we had a problem or we found something wrong with the room, half the lights didn’t work. They said the area we got was non smoking but people were smoking marijuana. I would love to get a complete refund because the experience was overall terrible and I hope no one ever stays there. Also there was another visitor staying and she was yelling at the staff because they stole her beers, which made us believe they stole our stuff as well. DO NOT DTAY HERE!

The front desk has a nasty attitude so if you even ask her to replace your car because it is an active she will get an attitude. I extended my stay due to Hurricane Helen and a front desk elderly woman stated because you stayed pass three days we will not clean your room. The gym lights don't work so you work out in the dark and the breakfast area only has one lamp. So everything in the breakfast room is basically eating in the dark. So please don't stay here.

No one was even at the front desk for much of the time after I arrived, which was about an hour early; finally left and came back at check-in time, and she still wasn't at the desk. Tried calling a few times, but no one answered. Took over 20 minutes to get me checked in; staff/owner kept complaining about slow system, walking back and forth between PC monitors; had the nerve to take a phone call while I had been waiting too long already. Bathroom had a hole in the wall; exterior steps in need of repair; the door had a crack at the bottom when closed

I have stayed at this hotel in the past and it was very nice, clean and nice place to stay. This time was the total opposite with the new owners/management they were rude, there was mold spores on the chairs, TV remote not working, my shower wasn't working properly. I told them that the shower wasn't working and they wouldn't move me to a different room after I asked to be moved. I was told by the owner no they didn't have available rooms and the other desk clerk told me yes. They were supposed to send their maintenance guy to fix and they never came to fix it. When I confronted them the following morning when I went to check out the owner got very nasty with me about it. She told me, "Well if you were so unhappy with your stay you could have came and asked for a refund and I would have gave you your money back. I don't need your money and I would give you a full refund." I told her ma'am we are in a state of emergency due to the hurricane and I can't go home because I don't have any lights or running water and I have kids. She told me that is not my problem and that she doesn't need my money. That was uncalled for considering no one had lights or running water due to the hurricane and everyone was seeking shelter. I also witnessed them being rude, disrespectful and inconsiderate to everyone. Please DO NOT stay at this hotel unless it is a last result.

I went to this property to stay over it’s for a wedding I was attending. My room was filthy. The bedspread had holes in it, the white sheets were gray ( they should have been white) the towels in the bathroom were dirty and one looked like it had a booger on it. When I asked the front desk for a clean room. The man at the desk got mad and said I need to stay at the Hampton refunding my money. I have never cared if a property was old I just want clean. This place is far from clean and the male older man has a nasty attitude.

Well the time I spent was okay. The bathroom had a smell of mold really strong one. Most of what I did not like was the staff rude Mexican lady. I moved out the room early and sat outside with my things that I just couldn’t fit in the car. Waited for a friend to come. Not taking up space just a parking spot. She calls my phone and says “ why is your junk still here” I tell her it’s not junk that I’m leaving now. She said “ I’m going to charge you for staying over” I wasn’t even I. Th e room never went back after checking out. Then I left got a few bag went to a near my store. Came back just to make sure I won’t be charged seeing as I wasn’t in the room. She was so rude called me a liar and yelled at me. Poor service at its finest. But they ended up giving me my deposit. But crappy people.

I booked this hotel expecting the basics. The first room I was in had mould all over the wall next to the closet, the Tv didn’t work and when I tried to phone the front desk the phone wouldn’t work either and there was someone’s leftover takeout in the fridge. The gentleman at the front was very polite and apologetic and switched me rooms. The next room the TV did not work and there was one pillow with black stains on it. I tried to shower but the water was luke warm at best. The next morning the woman at the counter stated that they were having problems with a lot of the TVs and that to get hot water we should have let it run for 10 minutes first. Very unfortunate.

DO NOT stay here. We arrived 11pm after driving the entire day, had booked 2 rooms for a family of 7. Check-in was easy. Soon after we entered our 1st-floor rooms, my son came running from his room - he pulled back the sheets and found 2 spiders in the bed. We then checked our beds and there were also spiders, including a web behind one pillow against the headboard! Spiders were found nearly everywhere!! Skinny little things but still. We packed back up, complained, and were given 2 new rooms on the 2nd floor. [While we waited, a couple was also given a new room, no idea why. After we were serviced, the man behind us complained that there was no water.] We inspected carefully and didn't find spiders so we agreed to stay since it was so late. My son realized he didn't have water with him and went to the vending machine - he selected water and was given an expired Fanta - the office exchanged it for water. After we settled and were about to go to bed, my son texted a photo of a roach on the lamp beside his bed. At this point we were so exhausted and it was after midnight so I told him and all to check for bugs once more before going to bed, all food in fridge, etc. and we slept without known issue. In the morning we saw that the towel across the tub was heavily stained, and the towels on the rack were completely worn with holes. We decided to just leave and be done with this place. Bought our own breakfast. Check recent reviews not just the rating - lesson learned!
