A great price and a nice place to stay

Have stayed at this hotel many times in the last couple years. Briana at the front desk is great. Love the pool area and reminds me of summer trips with my family as a child. The rooms are a good size and some offering a kitchen area with a stove top. A very convienent stay for a great price. Plus I love the garden.

Some rooms were nice but ours wasn’t to great as the bed had stains and it seemed really unstable. It didn’t feel to safe as my husband was approached by someone that was hang out with the staff in front office. My husband asked for towels and the person asked if he had a problem. Then another person approached me and my kids talking about how his sister destroyed everything and blowing cigarette smoke around my children.

Sad

It looks like they rent by the month. At check in the clerk did not give us any info except where the room was and the code for the gate. The towels were like sandpaper. This place needs an upgrade. For the price we paid you would think that they would at least had a breakfast to go. I will never stay here again. Not worth the price.

Stay elsewhere.

Beds need to be replaced, they squeak a lot. The door lock works intermittently, even though it flashes green. The pictures must be really old, because the property is run down.
