I'll start with the positives. The bed is extremely comfortable! The breakfast was good. It has a pool and weight lifting area but we didnt utilize those. I feel like the staff could have been a little more friendly. It seemed like they were just there to work but nothing more. The room we booked was completly falling apart. The bed was crooked. The floors were not properly installed, coming off of the walls were you can see the nails. The bathroom fixtures were coming out of the wall. The door was peeling apart. I would still stay here again if needed just for the fact that i had a good nights sleep in that comfortable bed.

Have a blessed day!

The room is nice and big with places to sit and relax other than the bed. The check in lady was very friendly and helpful. The only complaint would be a better vacuum cleaner because there is stuff on the room floor.
