The room was absolutely horrible, it smelt like smoke. It was very dirty. There was urine all on the toilet there was stuff all over the walls. The pillows were like airplane pillows, so tiny, and there wasn’t even a real blankets on the bed. There was stuff all over the floor. The air conditioning barely worked. The bathtub was disgusting. Even the smoke detector didn’t have batteries in it. It was left open. I would not recommend this hotel to anybody especially families with children.

Won't go there again.
The first room had 2 beds first one I looked at had sheets that had hair on them and looked dirty. The front desk lady brought more sheets but as she was gone I discovered the 2nd bedding was also not up to my comfort so she took us to a different room that looked a little better but there was stains on the carpet that looked like blood. After I Lysoled the whole room we did finally sleep but just didn't feel at ease or comfortable there. Didn't like the kids touching anything. I just had a bad feeling lots of bad things have happened there for some reason and didn't like having my grandkids there. It was supposed to have free breakfast but there was no coffee out, and only 2 xsmall (tiny) muffins and a small honey bun and that was it. Just didn't feel good.

drop them from your site. Very bad for business
I didn’t get to stay. They refused to let me check in. One of the men was very rude to me. Pretty much yelled at me. I’ve already talked to you guys twice and should be receiving a refund by 10 business days.

What not to get in a hotel room!!
There were several folks in residence, personal bbq grills and lawn furniture in front of several doors. The rooms smelled of smoke, one of the shower stalls was covered in black dye and I was afraid to walk on the carpet. Told my adult children that we’re never staying there again. The rooms were designed to promote tourism, you sure didn’t want to stay in the rooms. All in all, not so good.

There was no in room coffee and I don't like the fact that they had already charged my card before I had even gotten there and checked in.
Someone was playing loud music right outside of our door.
Over all our stay Wash not very good

I should of paid more attention to the reviews.
Upon arriving, they couldn’t get to hotels .com web site to get me checked in, took 20 minutes and three people then they found their log on pass word.
My room door had a 2 inch gap at the bottom
Breakfast is my worst ever.
With all the rooms available they put at 2:30am loud people next to my room.

Clerk was inept and incompetent regarding Expedia reservations. His attitude was poor. He needed another person to assist him and that person asked the same questions the first clerk asked. It took over a half hour to complete registration. I found several bugs in the tub in the ankle deep water after my shower. It took 45 minutes for the tub to drain. Internet service was unavailable after almost 2 hours of trying to connect. I will not return to this property again!!!!

Liked the proximity to restaurants and the theme park we're going to tomorrow. Decent rates. Pleasant staff. We could have used more pillows and blankets, but it was comfortable. Beds comfortable. TV selection was great for the 4 kids i had with me. My check in through Orbitz got complicated somehow, but i think that was just the computers having issues between the website & the hotel computer. Id recommend it to friends and will stay here again if available when i make this annual trip with my son & grandkids.
