The toilet was broken. The water was not hot. The cookies were for members only. The front desk worker did give us two but only after a lot of contemplation. No employees smiled.

Decent place to stay.

Overall, not a bad experience. But the hotel is showing its age. The AC in my room didn’t fully cool the room and also the mattress springs were really worn out. But for the price, overall it was clean and safe. I’d probably stay there again.

Wouldn’t recommend

From the time of arrival the front desk said the pool was shut down due to pump broken. Then I asked for a blanket for the pull out couch and the front desk said they don’t have any blankets because they’re overbooked. So we get a bed with no blanket? That was a weird experience. No courtesy to offer a discount for the inconvenience was discouraging. We travel there a lot not sure will be back.
