Nice Pool

Average hotel in an out of the way location. Nothing stood out good or bad. It was a good place to get a good night’s rest. No frills. The pool is a nice size. No fences, trees, or buildings blocking the sun. No breezes giving you unwanted chills.

Nice hotel, but needs some updating.

The room was spacious but in neèd of some updating. For example, the furnishings were showing wear. Some expected items for a hotel stay were not in the room, for example, bathroom tissue. Also, some maintenance items were completed at a subaverage level; ie, bathroom caulking. Parking and overall facility were fine.

Good value solid option for work and business trip

This is a solid option for a business trip in the area. Be sure to request drinking water at front desk, as area tap water isn't drinkable. Room and bed was clean and comfortable. Staff was courteous.

Fast check in, staff was friendly and accommodating. The room was clean.. bed was a little uncomfortable, you could hear the springs when you rolled over or even sat down.. but all in all not bad for the price.
