I wanted to love this hotel, i really did. Fresh newspapers and coffee in the morning, a crew that was psyched for life what could go wrong? Apparently the maids refuse to clean unless tipped, the manager habibi is a shady and suspicious man who said i was "smoking marijuana" when in reality i cooked bacon too much twice. All... More

We believed we were getting the room pictured on the site that separated sleeping area and family/kitchen area. When we showed up we asked the attendent after we got to our room and he said it is a suite since it has a kitchen. Beware if traveling with little ones call and clear up which room you want.

We stayed at this hotel while we were in town for deep river water park, this hotel was very clean, the staff was very friendly !!! The hotel was very conveniently located very close to all the area restaurants which was a big plus traveling with small children. : )

We stayed here for a two week period, and found out that we had bed bugs. When we confronted the front desk they did nothing about and two weeks later it had only gotten worse. There were bed bugs everywhere and the managers did nothing about it! DISGUSTING.

The manager WILL authorize your card the day before and not tell you EVEN WHEN YOU TELL THEM YOU ARE PAYING FOR CASH! The manager is super rude and talked about my financial situation.

Our room was clean and anytime we need extra items such as dishwasher detergent the staff gladly provided it. We also used the exercise room and laundry room both were spotless.
