I usually love staying here, it’s clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the pool being closed was really really unfortunate timing. I would have stayed elsewhere if I’d known it would be closed and didn’t find out until check in it would be closed the entire duration. Otherwise a good stay.

The outside of the building and the stairs were dirty; all walks of life were loitering in the parking lot. Surprisingly, the room was clean. I would suggest not returning to your car at night. Had I known it was made like a motel with rooms outside, where anyone and everyone who's outside knows your room number. I would not have chosen this location. Safety is my priority!!
