Not a 3 star motel

The room was extremely hot when we arrived and took 1 day to cool down to a comfortable temperature. Bed comforter was old and torn. Carpet was old, worn and had stains. Shower tub did not drain properly and filled while showering. Ice machine was far away in the workout room. Pool was clean and open late which was nice.

This motel was cool. The pool area was nice and clean. The staff was very nice. The tiki bar was cool and the service and drinks were great. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, but the rooms are old and definitely need upgrades. The price was fair. My only issue was the AC unit did not cool down the room enough.

Very poor hotel

Air conditioner wasn’t working they switched us rooms the next day.Mind you the temperature that day was 102 deg Second room smelled like cigarettes. I had asked if they could atleast accommodate me a late checkout for the bad a/c because of the the first night and female clerk at front desk refused and charged me anyway. Showers need upgrading, toilets flush slow, and the a/c units are extremely outdated. Also they have only 1 ice maker and it’s hidden in the gym area. Not a very good location in such a hot environment. Also there should be more. Will not be staying here again.

I don’t have a whole lot to say, we only stayed for one night and got in late afternoon early evening left to go to a dinner party came back to sleep and checked out. However, it was a nice place, a little dated, but clean. The pool area was kind of hopping though and looked pretty fun, we went to the bar and had some really good tiki drinks. I would probably stay there again if I just needed a place to stay, it’s not really around a whole lot so you would have to drive to the strip if you wanted to walk around and shop. Overall, I would recommend it if you need a place to stay.
