Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: The front desk staff was very friendly. Nice breakfast selection. The bed was relatively comfortable. Cons: The upper floors smelled very musty. We kept smelling cigarette smoke that we thought was coming from the AC unit in our room but I think it was actually the curtains. There was also an oddly large gap between the bottom of the room door and the floor. I shoved a towel in the gap at night. The jacuzzi was also freezing. Would have been nice if there was a sign posted before hopping in. It's definitely a location for travelers, for a quick over-nighter. I was disappointed in the cost per night vs. the overall quality of the property. Greatful for a friendly front desk staff and free breakfast though!

Friendly staff, very helpful. what I did not like was that fact that breakfast was changed. I did not like the breakfast this time. There was more options before. There was Almond milk, yogurts single cups different flavors, there was waffles, there use to be French toast stick, apart from Eggs and Sausage links. Breakfast was horrible.
