DONT NOT STAY HERE
Room is incredibly outdated, bathroom was very dirty, had spit from the previous people who stayed all over the mirrors, carpets are horrendous dirty… stains everywhere! The showers glass down didn’t work correctly so after a shower, the floor was a puddle. We stayed on the bottom floor. We had kids running around all night. They moved us to another room. All the furniture is dated and dirty, not to mention the restaurants around the hotel sucked. Worst food I’ve ever had in my life. Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
