Passable close to the sports fields

This hotel is very close to the sports complex and was the hotel recommended by our tournament. It is passable for a few nights and the convenience. The room was not clean (there was blood on the comforter) and they were not flexible with a late check out of an hour so that we could have our athlete shower before a long flight back to the west coast. They also don't have any shower facilities near the gym or pool so we took a stinky flight home. Probably would not stay here again.

Nice cosy and affordable hotel.

Hotel was nice but noisy at night. My room was right outside the elevator and there was several parties going on that spilled out onto the hallway.

Pros: clean, good service, good price, safe area Cons: Walls are super thin. There’s no quiet hours that guests respect. Don’t let them give you a room near the elevator, it’s super loud!
