The tubs could've been cleaner, had less hard water, and the WiFi could've been less spotty but overall the hotel was very immaculate, had excellent waitstaff, a nice large pool, a separate area for smoking which is a lifesaver for an asthmatic and decent breakfast offerings. You really can't complain. If this was an apartment It wouldn't be decent

Parking lot has a lot of potholes. The room was clean and it the hotel was conveniently located near the highway, but not so close that the highway noise was a problem. Breakfast was really good. The thermostat didn't work all that well and needs to be upgraded. The price was excellent and the pool area was nice.

Family and I enjoyed our stay. However we were given a room that didn’t match the photos. They lure you in with false pics. And then tell you to cancel your Expedia and book through them for a better room. Felt a bit dishonest but I rolled with it. Next time I will confirm because there was no sofa bed in the room and the room pics on exp have one.
