Staff were great. Their restaurant recommendation was top notch. But, the beds are lumpy and horrible. I thought maybe it was just mine but my sis-im- law stayed in the room next door and said the same. Otherwise rooms were clean and facility was convenient.

We liked the location. Facility in general was nice. Shower was not good. Shower head was not adjustable and would only shoot a weak stream.

The hotel is basic and clean. The staff was polite and the room was clean. The room was also hot when I arrived so I turned on the AC. It was VERY loud. I asked the front desk if I could try a different room. But they were booked up. I had to keep the AC on because it was a hot day. But it was hard to sleep with that very loud AC unit.
