Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The stay was terrible. Kids were running back and forth telling until 10:30pm people telling from across the buildings. People were hanging out on stairs next to room smoking we could get water in shower on, without flight with knob. Staff was okay that came quickly when we needed something. To many work trucks in parking lot. So no where to park
