Great Pool + Comfy Bed
Comfy bed, Spacious room, Great tub/bathroom. A little out of date in hallways/exterior but room was great! Lots of parking with side doors closer to the room was a plus, and right across the street from food/shoppers. Not super busy either compared to the other hotels in the area i saw. The pool + hot tub was fantastic and why i chose this one. Happy with my stay!

Stay if no other choice
Got in the room it was freezing cold. Turned on the one and only heater, took 2 hours to be comfortable. The windows don’t close properly so cold air comes in. Two double beds, not queen. The place is run down but they renovated the bathroom.

Didnt like hot tub closed at 9:30 due to shift workers. Put them on the outside rather than whete atrium is then so other guests can enjoy amenities. I had to get 3 sets of key cards as my room would not let me in. Otherwise ok place for price.

Decent for a short stay
Hotel is old, but functional. Front desk staff was very good. Rooms - mattress was good, pillows not so much. TV was quite bad - small, not hi-def, minimal channels. The bathroom was fine. Coffee maker and amenities were good.

The property is not well maintained. The grounds look horrible and the outside of the hotel was not updated. The hot tub was not open. . Our shower in room 154 was not working going from hot to cold in each shower. The overall hotel building needs immediate repairs and updates. Not a pleasant experience.

Reasonable price but room was not the cleanest, dirty towel was left behind from previous guest, candy wrappers not picked up. Kleenex box in bathroom was empty and there was no extra roll of toilet paper.

Checking in was great but our stay was not. The hottub wasn't operational. The pool was murky. You could see debris floating in it through the lights. Was woken up both mornings to a backup beep of a truck and transferring steel beam from a trailor to a truck. Not great.
