Hidden Gem!

Never judge a book by its cover. The exterior was a bit rough but the room was fantastic! The bed was probably the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in at a hotel. Jackie at the front desk was beyond nice. One of the best desk clerks ever!!!

Don't waste your money

Well the pictures were so nice but also very misleading. Check in was easy. The room was the disappointment. First off there was an immediate smell upon entering the room. Smelled old and musty. The room was very large. The furniture looked old and run down the drawers didn't come out correctly. The sheets weren't that clean. They had specs of dirt or something. I had my 3 kids and I was not happy with them being there. It wasn't kid friendly at all. There was an odd window in the bathroom. The bathtub didn't drain very well at all. By the time we were done taking our showers the tub was almost to the top. It was insane and not worth the 150 I paid. I would never stay here again.
