Everything was pretty good but the beds are like sleeping on a rock. I stayed here 2 different times and the first time was great second time our room had sewer Nats covering the bathroom sink and smelled so bad. The ac units smell very musty and made my son have severe congestion,sneezing ect. They habe very nice and helpful staff and they did move us to a cleaner room. Great breakfast, close to college and all shopping amenities in town. They ha e a pool which I didnt use and laundry on site which I didnt use. I would definitely stay here again with the pricing but they need to clean out ac units or something for sure and use chemicals in the drains to prevent odor and sewer nats
