Room was fairly clean. Upholstery had stains and just looked dirty. Staff very friendly and helpful. A continental breakfast provided as well. There is a large water "park" inside. We did not use, but sure looked like a family fun time to have.

We were told to park in the back of the property near where the closest entrance would be for our room. Both parking lot lights were out, so we parked further away to feel our car would be safe. Also, no elevators to be found which was an inconvenience.

The property is in poor condition. It smells in the hallways, the lighting is dim and most of the fixtures were loose on the wall. The AC unit in the room ran all night but it did not get cool. Overall it was a very poor evening of sleep.
