The room was well laid out, well equipped and clean. Beds were comfortable, and linens were of exceptional quality. The common areas were clean. Breakfast included a well stocked variety of both hot and cold foods and was clean. The pool, though small, was well maintained. Definitely recommend this hotel for a convenient location close to highway, restaurants and stores.

First off, the hotel is not visible from the road. The check in was strange. The employee handed me a paper and keys without saying anything. I had to ask what are room number was and where to park. Didn't give me any info about amenities which was disappointing because the pool that said online was open until 8 actually closed at 5. When we came back after our night out, there was nowhere to park. A few bigger vehicles had taken up 3-5 spots each. The area around the hotel is dark and a bit sketchy. Beds were comfy enough. Breakfast was pretty good, loved that they offered chocolate milk.

La única sugerencia es que es muy poco estacionamiento para todo el hotel . Si sales en la noche cuando llegas no tienes parking. Me ha pasado varias veces que e hido.

The common areas, surfaces and beds were clean. No bad odors. The bedroom floor could have been vacuumed better and the shower had a constant drip that forced us to have the bathroom door closed at night. Breakfast selection was very good! Compared to other places I’ve stayed, this was pretty good.

Overall the stay was okay the first room that was given to us smelled funky. We immediately told the staff at front desk and was moved to another room on another floor. It was better than the first,however there was hair left in the shower, and sink from prior guests. The area was okay. There is a restaurant nearby called Jimmys Pizza which was really good.
