Stayed for one night. Check in/out was super easy. The room was clean and the beds were really comfortable. I liked that the pool was open until 11:00pm considering we didn’t get there until 7:30pm. The breakfast that is included is nothing to write home about, but it’s free so I guess I shouldn’t complain. Overall for the price of the hotel I would definitely stay here again,

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was pretty clean, some stuff was not fully cleaned and it did have an odd smell when we first arrived. The parking was wonderful lots of room. Overall a good stay, the rooms could be a bit cleaner but we had a good experience staying there for a good price.

We had an easy time checking in and the room was clean upon arrival. There was a smell on the floor that we stayed in, but it wasn’t consistent throughout the hotel. Breakfast area was clean and restocked consistently. We would have preferred longer breakfast hours.

Convenient location, comfortable room. But there was no toilet paper there when I checked in, and the coffee maker had a used K-cup in it, so they need to work on their housekeeping. The woman at the front desk was very helpful and friendly.

The people at the front desk were great during check in. The breakfast was run well. The hotel itself was very run down looking as well as the elevator, noisy air conditioner and ice machines. Other than that, the beds were super comfortable and our stay was pleasant.

Nice place, polite staff, comfortable bed. Google Maps can't find it....it shows it being on the opposite side of the road from where it is (across from a coffee shop, when it's actually on the same side as the coffee shop and back a little). Pool looked nice too, but my travel schedule didn't let me use it. Breakfast was above average for the price point. Would stay again.

Price was unbeatable, bed was comfy and clean, shower hot and clean. Yes, the place is under renovation and the breakfast lacking, but staff was kind and again, price was unbeatable. Basic accommodations, not swanky at all. If you are looking for a comfortable place to hang out and socialize, not the place I would choose. If you are needing a stay for the night, like I was, it does the trick.

The lobby and staff were very welcoming. It was in a good location. The beds were comfy n The pool is only indoor, not outdoor, however, also not heated. Half the flood light style lighting lit up at night while the other half did not. First night there the entire place smelled of weed, shampoo dispenser completely empty, conditioner a quarter of the way full. Floors not swept or mopped (misc plastic garbage pieces/ caps visible) chair stained..

The pool was nice and heated and the staff was kind and quick to respond. The property felt dirty and not well maintained/aged. The breakfast was in a windowless room with pretty poor quality food. The pool deck was wet and looked quite old and lots of peeling paint. The room felt old and damp. The sheets and bed were clean.
