Charging a $100 deposit on my credit card and then saying that it would take 2-3 days to return it when I left doesn't seem like acceptable business practice. Having a pool area where the pool is completely covered seems questionable.

I did not stay. As soon as I enter my room it was dark, and had two flies buzzing around, bed frame was falling apart, then turned on the light in the restroom only to find 2 cockroaches on the ceiling. I went immediately to front desk and checked out and requested a refund. He offered another room, but if there are roaches in one room there definitely will be roaches in other rooms. He didn't seem surprised and was very calm and refunded my room.

Phoenix was working the front desk during our stay, & he was great, along with the housekeeping staff. The dining area was very clean & organized, & we enjoyed eating breakfast there. As for the room, the double queen beds were super cozy & comfortable, & we slept like proverbial rocks! The other in-room amenities were also great: coffeemaker, microwave, & mini fridge. The room could definitely use some TLC. The carpeting needs to be either THOROUGHLY cleaned or completely changed out, & a fresh coat of paint on the walls & doors would do wonders. The bathtub needs to be replaced, but I used a workaround to avoid standing in the tub with my bare feet by placing an extra bath/body towel on the tub floor instead of wearing my flip-flops. The blackout curtain & drapes need to be replaced as well. It served our purpose for the 1-night we needed & was definitely cost-effective.
