The room was nice, the staff was very friendly, but.....they only cleaned the room once a week.....I stayed there 12 nights. Had to go down to the front desk to get clean towels. Ran out of toilet paper twice. The place just wasn't managed very well.

Staff was nice. They let us check in at 1:15 pm because we had to get dressed for a funeral. Air conditioner wasnt working good in the bedroom. We called about it nobody never came to check on it. Things could have been cleaner around the hotel and I didnt realize when booking they didnt have continential breakfast. I dont feel it's worth the money paid. .
