This place was great! We booked online last minute, and we were a little skeptical. We booked based on other reviews.
Upon arrival, we were allowed to check out the room before we got checked in. Check in was quick and easy. The room itself was nice and clean! We even had a river view. And we couldn’t beat the price. We would definitely stay here again!
Really good property for the price, close to everything I’ve stayed on different hotels there and this was the best by far. I’ll definitely book it again
Forgot to change my arrival date and went to the default of the same day. Would not give a refund and allow me reschedule for the date that I wanted. Yes it was my mistake,..but really? You couldn’t just give me a break… and let me reschedule for the actual date that I wanted? Now I keep getting requests to review my stay. What stay? Oh well… that’s life!
No hot water to shower, fridge was worn and looked dirty. Pool was not open and green. But you can tell that they are doing work on it and the staff was super nice, but still can't give it more than 2 stars just because the front desk staff was nice.
