Gross and outdated, we walked in and walked out within 20 min to get a hotel on the north side that was clean and updated. Looks like a trailer park more than a resort. We didn’t even want to put our bags down never mind sleep there. I disputed the charges and got charged. I willl submit the refund receipt to try to win the dispute since it was $1100 for three nights. Looks more like a $25 a night...

Pros (+) The refrigerator with freezer and the TV. The table and chairs were also helpful.
Cons (-) I thought the shower was potentially dangerous. I would have preferred shower doors and wall handels .
