Good

The person at the desk was friendly and very pleasant. The room was clean and AC was very efficient. Our second visit in two months. We will stay there again in the future!
Is Ok , Staff needs more training, when I check in it was nobody in front I ask where was my room and the Assistant had a trouble giving me directions, Pillows only 2 per bed so uncomfortable the hotel needs new pillows a little more firm ,bed not too bad but the hallways smells like weed and room smells like pee.
For the price, this place was good. Overall the room was clean. The bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean.
The bathroom was clean as well, with the exception of the shower curtain that needs to be changed. The toilet could be upgraded as well. It was a slow flusher. You needed to hold the handle down for it to completely flush.
Again, all in all. It was nice, safe and I would stay again.

Property was nice...exactly what i expected...beds were great..slept like a baby
Upon arrival at 7:45, the front desk was not staffed. A number was listed on the counter to call for check-in.
Once we entered the room, there was a vacuum hose laying on the floor next to the TV. The base of the TV had dust caked on it like it had not been cleaned for months. The room had a very old smell to it, which was not good for our asthma.
Overall, we were very disappointed in our stay there.
