S

The staff at the hotel were exceptionally friendly and responsive, which made our stay more enjoyable. The lobby was inviting, and the pool area looked well-maintained and appealing. The hallways were clean and in good condition. Our room, while basic, met our needs adequately. The beds were comfortable, and housekeeping did an excellent job; we arrived to a clean and cool room, which was a great welcome. A few drawbacks: The elevator and gym were uncomfortably warm, which detracted from our experience. Additionally, the air conditioning in our room began making noise in the middle of the night and continued to do so, disrupting our sleep. A significant concern was the presence of large cockroaches in the breakfast area, which was quite off-putting

Definitely worth staying

I was a little anxious atter reading several recent negative reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised! The room was very clean with several pillows on the bed. Refrigerator got really cold and both it and the microwave were clean. Everything was fully stocked. The bathroom is a little small, but not inconvenient. I will say however, that the tub need needs redone (not replaced) bc it's peeling a good bit. I loved the water pressure and toiletries. The AC worked wonderfully. The tv remote didn’t work 100%, but we weren't awake long enough to reakky watch it anyways. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. I seen people talking about the bland breakfast. I appreciate this because a lot of people can't have salt due to medical reasons. Breakfast had a lot of options (hot & cold). I will definitely stay at this location again in the future. I wasn't ready to leave!
