Hotel was dirty, hot tub was full of chemical but not clean, it had dirty scum all over the sides and was not hot at all. Hotel lets people with dogs leave their dogs in room barking all night and morning. When I went to front desk to tell the they said it’s pet friendly so they could not do anything. I have 2 dogs I brought to hotels often and never leave them in room to bark and keep people up. This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at.

We always stayed at Red Carpet when owned by the Irvin’s - personal touch! Now there’s no reception desk, no tables in the room, only 1 nightstand, and only 1 comfortable chair! We stayed for 4 nights and really needed another chair (which they brought) and needed a small table & another night table! The beds were good and the room was nice otherwise!
