“If you’ve ever wondered what camping indoors feels like, this hotel has you covered—literally.” From the moment I walked in, I felt like I had stepped onto the set of a retro thriller—think Bates Motel, but with fewer thrills and more chills. The floor? Dingy and moldy. The door locks? Straight out of the 70s, and about as secure as a diary lock. Our adjoining room had two locks that didn’t work, but don’t worry—the previous guest left a chair barricade as a helpful tip. Amenities? If you consider doll-sized soaps and shampoos luxurious, you’re in luck. Lotion? Not in this time capsule. The bathroom had its own ecosystem of mold, and the mattresses were basically cardboard with a foam disguise. The real plot twist? Bed bugs. My daughter couldn’t sleep the first night because she was itching so badly. Turns out, she had an allergic reaction to the bites. Bottom line: This isn’t a hotel—it’s an indoor camping experience for those on a budget and with a taste for adventure. If you’re looking for comfort, security, or cleanliness, keep scrolling.

Let's start with the check in. There were only 2 guests infront of me and it took over 40 minutes until I was able to check in. The room was totally neglected, walls were stained, peeling, sheets were over used and balled. Lightening... There was none. Chair was stained, yuck!

This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. Check in took an extremely long time around 2 am due to unresolved issues with another guest. After finally checking in, we were surprised by extra charges, including an amenity fee and a daily parking fee that were not clearly disclosed when I booked it. We were assigned a fourth floor room in a separate building, only to find out the only elevator was broken. This was never mentioned by the front desk. When we reached our room, the door would not open despite using force. The door was already dented and visibly damaged. A staff member eventually arrived, slammed into the door until it opened, and offered no explanation or apology before running back to the front desk. Inside the room, the towels were damp, the beds were extremely uncomfortable, and the shower made loud noises. The shower door was also would not close properly. Outside, the situation felt unsafe. A homeless man attempted to follow us from where we parked, hooting like an owl at us. I grabbed my keys and honked repeatedly to get him to leave. We were traveling with a seven year old who was terrified. There was also loud activity late into the night at the convenience store across the street that we could hear until around 3 am. A group was drinking on the stores sidewalk and blasting music/dancing until 3 am. Overall, this was a stressful, uncomfortable, and unsafe stay. I strongly recommend avoiding this property.

I could have overlooked the dated rooms and rusty fixtures in obvious need of repairs. However,the customer service was deplorable!!! First, It took us 45 minutes to get checked in and we were blindsided by several hidden fees. The next night, we returned to our room after a long day at the parks and had an issue with our key card not working. We went to the desk to get them re activated. There were 2 people there and one person stuggling to help several frustrated parties with multiple issues and the other doing everything in his power NOT to help her. He ignored her, went to the restroom, went outside, and shut himself in the office despite her many pleas for help. When he finally came to the desk, he was visibly annoyed. After we waited 45 minutes, he reluctantly reactivated our cards but was very rude about it. We asked for a roll of toilet paper and he rolled his eyes and replied that it wasnt his department and proceeded to dismiss us. We were understandably annoyed and wrote a negative review about our experience on Google. When we checked out the next morning (at 3AM), this same employee had the audacity to berate us for leaving a bad review (apparently he must have gotten in trouble with his supervisor). No one in the hospitality industry should be allowed to speak to customers in the manner he did!! I can't believe management would allow this type of behavior!!! HE NEEDS TO BE DISMISSED IMMEDIATELY!!! DO NOT STAY HERE!!!

At check in time, the rooms had not been seen by housekeeping yet, so we waited in the lobby that had approximately 8 seats. The front desk staff appeared stressed and unhappy. The room was basic, and had a board game left over from the previous people.

They didn't charge us extra for something we wouldn't be using, but we also had a lot of trouble getting into the room because there were no working digital keys. Because of this, we had to leave a day before our reservation was supposed to end. I tried contacting Expedia, but it was impossible.

We’ve booked here a few times prior and will not book again after this stay. Our room door lock was literally taped on with electrical tape. Room was clean, but we got a sheet essentially to sleep with. Otherwise service was terrible. We were never provided with the WiFi, and when we called front desk we were hung up on. Didn’t even bother going to the front desk as there was always a wait of numerous people waiting hours to check in. One night, our room keys were deactivated (known by staff that this was to happen). We then went to the office, and were waiting with others who had been waiting 3 hours to check-in. We had to wait 45 minutes for a room key… 3 days into our stay. When we told the front desk lady what happened, she acted like we should’ve known this was to happen. No one told us, just like we couldn’t get any WiFi information. On the last day of our stay we tried to see what options they had for breakfast. Everything looked disgusting, burnt, or old. For the “resort fees” this property charges you’re better off booking with a nicer hotel. It may advertise $50/night but for a four day stay you’ll pay $600+ in resort and parking fees as well. Don’t stay here! We never will again!

Nothing more than a road side travel Lodge. You pay the Expedia fees and think that’s all you have to pay, but when you get to the hotel, they charge you $35-$55 extra. Even though you’ve already paid! Expedia needs to remove this hotel from their listings. Not to mention, we were sleeping a little after midnight, and an employee busted into our room without knocking.
