The hotel was not what I expected. The rooms and bathrooms were very small, and even the parking area was tight. The building itself feels very old and in need of updates. Overall, I don’t think it offers good value for the price.

I will just state that the hotel needs an adult pool only for over 21. Kids are taking up all the room in the pool and are noisy and splashing a lot. Also, floors in room are worn out with scuffs and scratches and look bad.
