We stayed in the king room,for one night,not far from where we checked in on the first floor. They are still working on remodel so we had to go to the courtyard for breakfast and on our way out to breakfast, there was a dead roach in the hallway, and my husband, let the front desk clerk know about it. The king room was spacious with two chairs, which we liked. The bathroom counter was kind of small. We did not go to the gym or the hot tub.

We stayed 3 nights and saw a small baby cockroach dead on the bathroom floor when we first came in. The AC unit smelled horrible and musty to the point that we asked to switch rooms. The next one smelled better in the room but the bathroom smelled like something died in there. Probably in the wall I’m guessing. And then my son went to use his labtop and a giant cockroach went running over his keyboard. We had only had the labtop out for about an hour.. I couldn’t sleep at all. Cockroaches are everywhere outside at night. They need better pest control for the outter perimeter to limit them getting into the hotel. And the pool is gross with black mold. Staff is friendly. I wouldn’t stay here again due to the cockroach issue. I had insurance for this stay and was DENIED any money back, they don’t cover insect issues what a joke! $120 a night for cockroach infested rooms and hair in the bed upon arrival!
