I stayed 2 nights for a fishing tournament at a nearby lake. I had a 2 bed suite on the 3rd floor. As soon as I arrived I noticed a swarm of sugar ants in the bathroom. The rest of the bathroom was very cheap looking. Unfinished caulking, the fixtures in the shower pull out of the wall when operating, and on my final morning I finally found a cockroach between the shower curtains! I was checking out in an hour so I hurried and got out of there. I'm just worried I didn't check the beds good enough! The staff was friendly enough and the beds were comfortable to sleep in. That's the only reason I gave more than 1 star. I won't be coming back to this location and after spending over $400 on this stay I'm disappointed and a little disgusted.
