Worth the price but not the best
It was great for the price, but the pool was so full of chemicals just being in the room stung your eyes. We still tried to go swimming, but gave up pretty soon and all took showers afterwards. I don’t think that’s a safe amount of chlorine. When we arrived, there was a large light roller left in our room And there was many small hairs on the bed. We were also told or shown three different times on the pool times somebody should decide what the actual hours are.
We've stayed there many times in the past and will probably continue to do so. It is convenient to our family in the area, as well as shopping and restaurants.
The staff is very friendly. The nice young lady even remembered us from about 4-6 months ago. Nice touch.

Everyone who works here is incredibly kind and helpful. My only complaint is that the water pressure in the bathroom was awful, and it just felt like being outside in a light drizzle. The WiFi also sucks. I did enjoy my stay here, though!
Front desk person when we arrived late in the evening was excellent-welcoming and both personal and professional. Room was clean, beds were comfortable, etc. Great start! The downside? People on our floor were slamming doors until well after midnight and before 6am—really interrupted a restful stay. Also, the next day when I talked to the front desk about club member things I could hardly understand him-his accent was so thick.
The staff were friendly, helpful and genuinely interested in making my stay as comfortable as possible. The facilities and room were clean, neat and comfortable. The morning breakfast was fresh, hot and offered ample variety to meet any diner’s requirements. This hotel is well managed and focused on providing an excellent experience.
