Expedia listed this hotel as having a restaurant and bar, which it does not have either. We would have chosen a different hotel. The bed was very uncomfortable and the couch/bed was uncomfortable hard around the edges and sinking in the middle. The staff was kind and the complex was clean. We were also charged for parking which we did not have a car. We have not received a correct bill yet.

Not good. Pool open but frigid. Front desk staff uninterested and literally talking to her mom on the phone while we waited to check in. Piiece of wall siding on the counter when we entered. Walked in on by housekeeping at 8:30 in the morning

Overall a great stay: reasonable price, clean, safe. it was very convenient to be able to run across the street to the grocery store and pick up food that you could cook right in your room. Parking can be a bit of a bear and the bed could be a little softer 💤. Would definitely stay again.
