"Wasn't expecting much but this hotel was a great stay. "

"One word to sum it up our stay…. amazing! We loved it. "

"Upon arriving the first impression is a wow, and then you immediately notice how every nook and cranny is so clean. There was never a bored moment, even for our teenagers, The pool, slide, fishing dock, kayaks, paddle boat, games, pool table, air hockey, books, piano, and large yard were used by all. The kitchen is stocked to the max with pots, pans, and every other kitchen gadget you can think of. The supply of beach towels was impressive and most useful. We had a wonderful time!"

"IT WAS EXCELLENT! Everyone was so kind! The only complaint and others complaining also was breakfast.It started at 6 am. We and several others were there at 6:25 am, everthing was cold, the coffee was luke warm. SO EVERYONE waiting on the 1 microwave. The food was good but COLD! "

"Very clean and perfect location for our business trip. "

"As a business owners, I dont leave bad reviews because usually a company at least tries. I have waited over 2 weeks to leave this review, however, to see if Evolve would refund me. They havent. The safety and cleanliness issues need no explanation if you look at the photos. This place was gross, smelly, and unsafe. It had improperly placed fire extinguishers, dirty cabinets, bad sheetrock and peeling up flooring, faulty wiring/ lights and an unphotographed bullet hole in a door. The fence that they associate with safety was delapidated and I told them that their security system was no deterrant in that bad neighborhood. We couldnt leave our trucks, loaded with equipment, there for fear of theft. I called the company, evolve, to tell them that the place was unsafe, and unsanitary and that we were leaving. They said okay and opened a case *to see what the property owner would do about it*. I have provided photos and explained my complaints but they defend the property owner and blame us for a fallen door (that almost fell on my carpenter associate who only tried to open it). This fight has been going on for over 2 weeks and they claim to be waiting on proof from the property owner. I'm getting impatient and am really upset that the company upholds NONE of its satisfaction garantees. "

"This is no 5 star hotel BUT it was clean and in a convenient location. The front desk lady Audrey was very pleasant to talk to in the morning. I wish I could remember the girl name, but she has lots of tattoos and cleans the rooms. She really took the time out to make sure I was in a room near my sister and that my room was clean and had fresh towels. She told me to wait 15-20 minutes and was done in 10 minutes! And told me to make sure I let her know if there are any issues. That made me feel like she took pride in her work and appreciated me as a customer. I'm not going to lie, I was a little skeptical at first when I pulled up because this isn't a "really nice" hotel. But it was clean and staff was friendly. King size bed was comfy too!"
