The couch was filthy. The tvs were glitching so we watched an iPad. Elevator was dirty and not vaccuumed. The shower wall and door were a mess. Won’t stay here again. Bed was comfortable though.

The tub was a bit scary. It was higher than the bathroom floor, tilted so when you got in you didn’t feel sturdy and it was pretty narrow and I’m a small person. Also the bed pillows weren’t comfy. The room itself was very nice.

Our stay was good. It was just one night on our way through town. One of the reasons I picked this hotel was for the hot tub because I was sore from driving. The pool conditions were pretty bad. Mold and stuff falling off the walls. Hot tub out of order. It wasn’t terrible but not 5 stars. Price was good for what we got. It’s good for a one night stay but I wouldn’t recommend for a long period of time with kids. The free breakfast was a huge plus.
