Room smelled heavily of mold. The housekeeper replaced our towels and replaced 2 of the towels with dirty linen. Our couch was sticky and so was the carpet. Also the toilet paper holder was broken so the toilet paper had to sit on the back of the toilet. For a suit I was highly disappointed in the room. The front desk lady was super nice but couldn’t accommodate a room change due to them being at capacity.

I think the location is noisy because it is right on 2 highways. Unfortunately, I was witness to a shady deal in the back parking lot by the pool. I would not park back there and would keep an eye out over all
