Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I really liked the place and had a wonderful experience while here! The only downside was the water pressure. Both for the sink and shower, the water pressure was low enough that it stood out. The water pressure for the sink would even drop lower at random points of the day before returning to where it was a while later.

Pleasant stay

Good hotel. I like that I can schedule when I want my room cleaned/turned. Great and prompt service. Compared to other hotels, the room is a bit more spacious. I just wish it had a few extra hangers (there was just one) so I can hang some clothes.

The mirrors are double mirrors which means other people are able to see your personal business. So the mirrors should be more private for customers. But other then that awesome hotel. Great customer service.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The TV kept turning on by itself throughout the night. We tried to turn it off multiple times, but each time, it would just turn back on at a louder volume than before. It had been malfunctioning, and I started to panic. My heart raced in the middle of the night from the shock of it all. No matter how many times we turned it off, it just kept coming back on, even louder. This had never happened to me before.

Hotel de estrada, mas os quartos são limpos e grandes. Tem lavanderia e é muito melhor do que de outros hotéis. O café da manhã não consumi porque achei bem simples. Ao lado do Sixflags. Vale a pena ir até de Uber, ou caminhando, porém estava muito quente no dia, nada dava para ir a pé, o estacionamento do parque é bem carinho.
