Hard bed but Everything else was good.

Stayed in Suite with Jetted Tub. Jets felt great on lower back until you try to sleep in the really firm bed. Could use updates but overall worth trying.

Room was clean and taken care of. Room was very small, had a double queen , if someone sat at table there was no way to move to the other side of room. Rest of property was lacking. No laundry facilities, what they had was broken. Only one working elevator that the inside was always dirty.

I was supposed to have a working refrigerator, but after multiple requests, and promises, I never got one. All you get told is, "I'm sorry.", and there no real resolution. Lots of smoking squatters at this hotel, and breakfast was less than desirable.

I thought it was great for the price and a good breakfast but a few things that were irritating. There was a portable closet almost in front of the AC so it didn't cool as well as it should. The satellite gave out when watching something way to often. It may seem strange but the toilet was super low I'm not that tall average height but it was low. Would I stay again probably but not in that room and would look at other options before I decided to come back.
