Weekend vacation

If you wore white socks during the stay they turned black. The covers had burnt holes in them. The toilet kept running and was in a very tight space you had to squeeze into the stool area. Cigarette butts under bed side tables, under the beds needed to be cleaned, no dresser or storage for clothes. Staffing was the best part very friendly and helpful. Rooms and the whole place needs upgraded its in very poor condition. Do not stay in the 100 or 200 section, these rooms need to be gutted and redone.

Even though the power went out one night, that is no fault of the hotel and it was really hot... we highly enjoyed our stay. We were given an upgrade to two rooms since the family room AC wasn't working. We will be back.
