"DO NOT STAY AT THIS LOCATION! We book at this property because of the rating and cost for 5 nights to attend our Sun and Fun vacation. We arrived Tuesday evening finding majority of property has monthly renters who are drinking, smoking outside their doors, dogs unleashed and no one in office to check in. I asked Wednesday morning for our room to be mopped and get clean towels as our room was discussingly dirty and unsure if a dog was in there previously. Our socks had to be thrown away. We returned keys didn’t work in doors, room had not been touched. We complained but was told they don’t have clean towels. Again, I request the floors to be mopped and clean towels for Thursday. Once again keys didn’t work 3 times were replaced and room remained unclean. I talked to the manager. She told me they don’t service the rooms during the stays. I explained to her that I booked because of the rating which was grossly incorrect. I wanted my room clean, fresh towels and trash take out now or I was going to report to health department for unsafe conditions. She said she would try to get someone to our room. Later a maid arrived at our room with a spray bottle of cleaner and clean towels. Our key didn’t work and sink was leaking. This property needs to be revaluated due to unsanitary conditions and poor management. After paying $100.00 per night we expected better and will not recommend this property. I have also listed it on Sun and Fun site for next year travelers."

"The property is dated and could use refurbishment and it's underway. Mostly it needs to be brightened up by repainting and the carpet removed and or replaced. However, everything was clean including bedding, floors and furnishings. It was an older Ramada Inn with their older dark colors. My wife and I never felt uncomfortable and would/will stay there in the future. It's location is in an area of low income spread. We read all previous ratings before going there. I can only say it's obvious to us the poor ratings are largely prejudicial for feeling uncomfortable due to it's location within the low income sprawl. I know this because I was raised within a block of the hotel 65 years ago. All said, why spend 3x or 5x the money to stay elsewhere? Frankly it's stupid! There is a high fence around the sides and back of the property with barbed wire that might be intimidating to some people. Some might think it's to keep people from coming onto hotel property. However, a close look reveals the fence has been constructed to prevent people from entering the adjacent business (not residential) properties when they are closed. Refurbishment is underway but slow due to the high cost. All I can say is don't write it off based upon comments by people who tried to take advantage of their policy of allowing a pet. The bad ratings was the result of a renter not disclosing the fact they had more than a dozen dogs that were part of a dog show. "

"We were worried about when we first pull in it looks like rough area. But we gave it a try. The staff she is so accommodating and respectful. We got room 154 facing the pool area. The room is not bad at all. There is no bugs and the bed is comfortable. It’s old hotel but clean and comfortable. And no one bother us during our stay eventhough there is a lot of people hanging out from outside. "

"Great locatuon! Lots of food options and shopping close by. Friendly staff and very helpful. "

"This place is run by an offsite group. The staff can’t do anything but ask someone offsite for what they’re supposed to do next. Totally misrepresented on website. Run down doesn’t begin to describe this place. Was told I would receive refund for all but first night after trying to check in and rejecting to stay there. Haven’t received a dime to date. Don’t walk, run away from this place."
