All of the staff people were friendly and helpful. The restaurant option was helpful and the breakfast was pretty good. Interior was always well lighted and clean. I could not find one thing wrong with my room lol. What didn't I like? The morning we left early, it was still dark. There was no lighting under the front entry or in the parking lot. 6:00 a.m.. You need to adjust your timers. Overall an exceptional hotel.

The pool was dirty no one ever cleaned it, on Saturday night there was a party at the hotel with a bunch of rowdy kids looking to intimidate and start confrontations with the guests. They also trashed the bathrooms and areas around the hotel. Harassed the staffers and heard someone say there were weapons involved.don’t know why the police weren’t called! This was not acceptable

I came during karaoke night so I thought it was going to ruin my night because I’m so use to hotels with super thin walls I thought for sure the music would be unbearable. Nope, didn’t hear as much as a peep in my room. I absolutely love quiet hotel rooms and I base my ratings on that and the smell of the room. Fantastic hotel to stay!!!

Very outdated property which had an odor throughout. The room, hallway and elevator all smelled. They were stingy on the towels but would give you more if requested. Front desk was almost always vacant-no employees around. Breakfast was mediocre at best. Carpet in room almost felt wet-i wore shoes 100% of the time. Bed was comfortable but the sheets and blanket(if you want to call it that) seemed way to small for the bed and paper thin. Don’t recommend staying here!!!!
