The location

Extremely outdated hotel that is in need of a revamp. For the price we paid we shouldn't have to worry about beds rolling away from the wall when you sit up in them, tv was old school, the bathroom was tacky and pool area had peeling paint on the decking. Online photos gave it no indication on how it actually was
