The hotel was clean and quiet. Breakfast was ok. Staff was so friendly. Big downfall was not that many channels on the tv and the Netflix app would not connect for us log in. Also the room had some random items form previous guests which was odd.. Bobby pins in the bathroom and eyedrops under the nightstand

Staff and prices were great, but the rooms and bathrooms were pretty small compared to other hotels. Pool smelled of sulfur at times and I noticed lots of bugs in the water. Probably should use more chlorine to keep it clean or something.
