We enjoyed our brief stay here and would go again. For a short stay the lack of pool, and access to various ammenities was not a problem. Not sure what the complaints are all about and why this place has a low rating as we did not have any issues or concerns whatsoever.

Our room had extensive black mold in the bathroom, all along the flooring and even alongside the wall. Our key cards wouldn’t work either, so one person had to constantly be in the room to let the other in. The staff was friendly, but the hotel is in need of serious renovations and cleaning. They shouldn’t have let someone stay in a room with so much mold.

The staff was very helpful. Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived around 5’ish. The room was very dirty, ripped lampshade, ripped mattress pad, coffee maker area was filthy along with bathroom floor. Room itself wasn’t bad - definitely needs a much better cleaning job.
Mattress pad
Ripped lampshade
Coffee area. No cups, straws everywhere and coffee pod punctured.
Mirror all smeared

Not so good.

Check in was great. I was upgraded for free. Disappointed in the fact that there was no coffee in the room. The pool and fitness center were closed with no pre notice. The breakfast was non existent.

Falsely advertising pool open when it was closed, the breakfast was horrible. Nothing out and no one was allowed to restock it. The coffee creamer was as spoiled. The room was not cleaned properly, the bath tub was clogged. If cleaned properly the maids would have fixed it. Cops were called cuz of a fight on my floor. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to nobody. For what they charge you it is not worth it

The price was great, however, we selectes the room based on the pool. They said it was being renovated. When we arrived we saw the pool area and it been down for a while. There was a tree growing in the pool area. Also, our first room had blood stains on the linen. We were given another room thankfully. The room cards kept turning off, and they had to reset them 4 times during a two night stay.

Although the workers were polite and friendly, this place needs work, and possibly new management. You get what you pay for is very true out this place. What was once probably a quality Best Western is now a run down Rodeway Inn. Exercise space, pool, arcade all out of order for “remodeling”. “Hot” breakfast was toast packaged in ziplock sandwich bags. And sheets with stains that should be replaced. For simply a bed, this place works. For a vacation stop, spend a little more and avoid that intersection of Melton, or you’ll be in for a disappointing experience.

Awful experience

The first room we were sent to hadn’t even been cleaned, so we had to take all of our stuff to another room. At 3:00 in the morning, the fire alarms went off, due to someone smoking in their room. None of the amenities were available, due to construction. No pool, no workout room, nothing! “Breakfast was a joke…toast and bagels and cereal! This was definitely the worst hotel I’ve stayed in.

Totally disappointed!!! Went to the beach all day with little kids. Check in time was 3pm . We got there and the room was not ready. Was told they were overbooked the day before and today. Asked how long till ready . She said it would be about 15 minutes. We said we understand we will go to dinner and come back. Upon return 2 hours later . They stated they don’t have a room. We canceled and headed home 3 1/2 hours away. Woke up the next morning and was still charged. BEWARE!!! While waiting people were coming out saying there was mold in the rooms and dirty. No Pool !!!!!!

Pathetic

I was with my family for two nights and had a terrible experience. Breakfast was pathetic serving only cereal, bread and apples. Only condiment available with bread was butter. Juice machines didn't have juice. No other fruits, yoghurt, flavored milk or eggs. One of the days they even closed the breakfast early for no good reason. The pool and gym were closed. No housekeeping. No coffee pods in the room despite coffee machines being there. Even the bedsheets in the room were not washed. I will never come back here.
