| - We chose to stay here because #1: they allow up to two pets for free - no charges at all! - and #2: it was $75/night. However, I read reviews on another site about people who got things stolen from their room by maids and I dunno, for some reason I got it into my head that someone might try to steal my dogs! LOL sounds really dumb and paranoid, but my dogs are really cute and sweet and TRUSTING and if anyone tried to come in, my dogs wouldn't attack them with anything other than kisses and then boom - they could be dognapped. They're like my kids, alright? Gimme a break! ;)
Check in was quick, which was good. We stayed on the second floor and had a room that faced the pool. The hallways were suuuuuuuper stinky and smelly - and we're not talking just a stale cigarette smell, although that was there too. It was musty and kinda "wet" smelling, like when your laundry doesn't dry enough and it gets that funky smell. Speaking of the carpet, the hallway carpets were extreeeeemely dirty - I wouldn't dare walk on it with bare feet! All the doors had a weird black stain in front of them - eww!
Our room was surprisingly nice, though. It was quite big (2 queen beds) and clean. I liked that they had a giant jacuzzi bath tub and was going to try it out but got grossed out when I saw that the bottom of the tub was flaking off in different areas.
The pool was a little dirty, with floating leaves and stuff which normally bothers me, but I got over it when I realized that hardly anyone was in it! I'd rather swim in leaves and twigs than someone else's piss! That's not to say that someone couldn't have done that earlier, but I had been peeking at the pool all morning and saw only one adult person in there, who was on his way out when we got there and he was just doing laps. Another couple came in and swam for about half an hour before getting out to work out in the gym which is located right next to the pool.
We didn't eat the free breakfast because we woke up too late for it on Saturday and to be honest, it didn't sound appealing. Plus, the hallways were so dirty and stinky that when we would step out of our room, all I could think of was leaving the hotel right away, so I didn't want to eat their food - who knows what condition the kitchen is in anyway?!?!?
We won't be staying here again. The one star were for the big room and the fact that they don't charge for pets. However, after staying here, I now know for SURE that we won't be back with our dogs - at least not at this place.
