Dirty room. Dirty hallways. Dirty walls. TV didnt have cable, only apps. But TV wasn’t connected to the internet. So no TV. Also, the pool has been under renovation for months with no expected date of reopening. Equivalent of ‘no pool’. Poop should not be listed as an amenity at this hotel.

The good thing was that the property is pet friendly. The front staff were also friendly and helpful; On the down side, the property is getting a little tired and in need of a renovation. The room is carpeted and full of many years of unpleasant odors. Unpleasant chemicals were used to disguise the smell. We expect better from Sandman.

I would not recommend this hotel. Smell of weed in elevator, hallways stunk and were dingy with wallpaper peeling off in places. The sheets on our bed were clean but the comfortor was very dirty and there was pubic hair in the bedside drawers.

The room was disgustingly dirty. The carpet was stained and filthy. The window sills and windows looked like they’d never been cleaned. The bathtub and toilet had permanent stains due to age. Hallways were in disrepair. Pool was out of order and not noted on Expedia. Railings were falling off and front entrance door smashed. Very unsafe for children or anyone with mobility issues

The staff was friendly and quite helpful. The linens were clean, but the carpet in the hallways was worn out. My mattress was worn out. The door to the bathroom wouldn’t close properly because is falling off it’s hinges and the fan in the bathroom sounds like an airplane taking off. I think it’s an old one from the 60’s or whenever the hotel was built. Doesn’t really live up to the Sandman standard that I was counting on.

We had 2 rooms booked. One for our daughter, her husband and children and ours. We walked into the room, it smelt like an old bar. Curtains werent on the hooks,( short hooks). Dirty room. Called out kids, (where their was in other building. Very similar. They did not feel comfortable letting there chikdren touch anything. One child 4 yrs old, 2nd 4 months old. Online, advertised a pool. On arrival, found out iteasbroke for 3 months, only got going 2 hrs prior. Theyad ised, it will be cold. But could go in approximately 2 hrs. (No thank you) We immediately left. Thank goodness we booked througha 3rd party with expedia. They were amazing, refunded our money immediately. Went to another hitel, that had a working pool, clean rooms and great service. After, were told by others who stayed there on their way to a wedding, (1 week prior),there was dried blood on their sheets. They also left.
