I booked through Expedia back in May for a rate that was 2X the current rate that could be obtained directly from the hotel. This is WAY TOO MUCH for a hotel that offers limited service - get your own towels, take out your own trash, and room cleaning only twice per week (if you sign up for it). There is no pool. There is no breakfast. The room rate now on the hotel web site is less than half of what I paid. BUYER BEWARE. Make sure you know what you are paying for with the Dexter by Kasa. There are many other options in town offering greater value.
