Updated and clean bathroom. Good value for short stay with basic breakfast. Nice staff. There was another guest smoking weed sitting outside room in the hallway. Not sure what the property policy is but not the best sight and smell

Worst experience of our lives! The lights weren’t working except for the lamps and the bathroom plus the sink area. The microwave wasn’t working properly, and the staff was rude rushing us to get out when we woke up late after 10:00am.

Plastic fantastic

Decent for the price point. Breakfast underwhelming. Environmentally irresponsible to use disposable plastic cutlery and polystyrene plates.

Pleasant stay close to all our needs. Breakfast could have been better as food service stated 16 20 minutes wait on food. We ate little and did not have time to wait since others were waiting and the area wasn’t crowded. Had to ask for towels at 12am since there wasn’t any in the room. Front desk was friendly and accommodating. Would stay again especially the area was very close to everything.

This property is older but definitely just remodeled. Pool furniture still vibrant. Fresh painted building and clean updated rooms. So many workers keeping the place tip top shape. Only disappointment was the hot breakfast eggs were premade omelets that were crunchy on the outside. But plenty of other options. Great value for the area.
