Clean and comfortable.

The hotel room was quiet and clean. The bathroom was small as the door swings in to right in front of the toilet. The hot tub is gone and recently tiled over, which was a disappointment. Television allows easily for HDMI media input.

Our room had a funky smell, Bathroom was terrible. They had us in a handicap room, there was not a real shower and the sink was built for a wheel chair to go in. The mirrors were dirty and there was not a tall mirror or anything so that you could see yourself before you left the room. Also, Wallpaper was peeling and the window would not shut all the way and screen was popped out. Not at all happy with the room based on what I paid for it. The staff was not that friendly, I asked for water and I was told to come back down later, meanwhile another couple walked up and were given two bottles.

Not even a complementary coffee, my wife didn't want to use the coffe maker becouse it had dust inside, we went downstairs and had to pay for a cap of coffee and water. No breakfast neither unless you pay for what you consumed. Other. Heaper hotels around offers at least a capbof coffe on the lobby, others offer continental breakfast.
