Room was clean continental breakfast had lots of options but food tasted stale. When we took the kids to swim we noticed stuff on the bottom of the pool that looked like loading Feces. And there was a cockroach floating in the pool. When we went to tell the lady working at the front desk she was on her personal phone and more concerned with that then helping us and told pass it on

The rooms were not sound proof. The water pressure and temperature were so bad. There were a couple of roaches we found. The bed made so much noise while just moving on it. It was clean so I gave it two stars. And I also needed to stay because I had a big test to take the next day.
