Dirty room and roaches crawling everywhere.
The room was incredible dirty. There were roaches in the bathtub and crawling on the wall. The sheets had stains all over them. The water pressure in the bathroom was non existent. We ended up leaving and staying somewhere else because i did not feel comfortable at this place. We went back in the morning to turn in our key, but i was not at all happy with the experience here. If I had not had already checked in I would have requested a refund just due to seeing so many roaches crawling in the room upon us getting in there.

Ok for a cheap hotel
The hotel is ok. The breakfast buffet was great, cereal, bread, fruit, waffles and coffee/juices. Plus sausages and eggs some days. The food and drink was replenished regularly.
The pool was ok.
The hotel had a cockroach infestation but they treated the hotel as there were dead cockroaches rather than live at the end.
