We inadvertently booked a stay here instead of the Holiday Inn closer to our venue but we are so glad we stayed at this location. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable, and even though we had to drive to meet up with our relatives our accommodations were much better.

It may be warm but the pool was still close, our A/C was loud, the tub is tiny and had signs of age but the property itself is nice and clean and the staff seem to be hard workers. The breakfast was good and filling, parking was easy and it’s just off MLK.
