Decent stay. The internet is awful and it’s pretty loud with constructing or renovation…but the bed was very comfortable. The room was pretty big, bigger than I expected. Staff was nice, too All in all, we will stay here again.

The property okay for a night. You must request room service, if not they do not replace towels, pick up trash, or anything. The indoor pool was so dirty! This was the reason for booking the hotel. Breakfast was not good, do not drink the coffee. Walls are thin so you hear people walking on top of you and outside the rooms. Also, had mold in the bathroom over shower. Plus had people outside asking for money.

I checked into this hotel for 3 nights, with only 2 towels. The room wasnt serviced, no trash taken out, etc. When i called to the front desk for more towels the nexr afternoon, i was told that they had given out all the towels they could. I had to drive to a dollar store to buy a set of towels so i could shower. The first night i stepped in front of the curtains to draw them close, i stepped in wet carpet - the air conditioner was leaking. I called to report it - nothing came of it. This was such a subpar stay - i wont stay at this property again.

The property was nice. The front office gals were polite and friendly as well. about the only bad thing i could say is that the garbage collection from the city woke us up at 545 am picking up the dumpster (which is in no way the hotels fault). breakfast was nice and had plenty of choices
