Better than last stay; however, I wish housekeeping would have not been so loud in the morning, yelling across the way. If you want to sleep in, make sure you tape a sign that says, "Do not disturb" because they will knock on your door and wake you up!

Room was just okay. But they gave me a Handicapped Room. I Hate HANDICAP ROOMS. The only good thing about the room was Excellent Air conditioning and NO SOFT WATER. It was clean enough. The bed wasn't very comfortable.
