I chose this property over less expensive, well-known hotels because it was rated high. Depending on what you are looking for, it might be fine for you. It is quiet, the sheets smell wonderful, and the staff is very nice. As for the hotel itself, it is an old facility with freshly painted popcorn walls, dusty lights, and a little dirt in the corners of the bathroom. The shower was strong, and the refrigerator was so cold that it froze our beverages. Breakfast was fine - yogurt, bagels, cream cheese, premade omelets, apples, muffins, juice, and a nice coffee machine. I did not find value in staying at this hotel, and I would choose a different facility next time.

From the outside this hotel looks pretty run down and sketchy. The inside common areas are okay. The hotel smells fresh and it's clean but the condition of the common areas are a little beat up. However, I have literally stayed in wonderful hotels all over the world and the beds in this hotel are among the best I've ever slept on. Very very comfortable beds, the breakfast in the morning was very good. The breakfast area is set up very nicely and the food was good. Free parking, free breakfast, and definitely the best price around and a good staff so with all of those positives I can deal with the outside of the hotel looking pretty dumpy.

I got a great night's sleep after a string of bad hotel stays, and the atmosphere, staff were great. I did though, book this / search and find this, because of the outdoor pool, and that was the bad part. The water was green on a gray day, there was bird poop all over, chairs with no tables, uncomfortable deck loungers, and just a very shabby, motel feel. Not cool. So if a pool doesn't matter to you, you'll enjoy your stay. I wish I could have taken the bed with me! I do think the TV should be on a wall across from the bed instead of off to the side, but that's a small thing.

I would look for someplace else first, but I could stay here again if it were the only available in this price range. 1. Lots of noisy doors. Unable to open or close the door to my room without an extra shove that makes a loud thump every time. Steel door scrapes against the frame. Thought this kind of problem was limited to wooden doors that warp from humidity?! Seems as if there are many other misaligned doors in the building, as you can hear thumps frequently during the night and early morning. Building has an open layout with hardly any hallways, which means you can see and hear most doors in the entire hotel while standing outside your room. 2. Shower drain issues. Inches of water in the tub when you're finished. It does eventually drain 15 minutes later… Day 1 - Asked the front desk to fix, no change. Day 3, shower still full of water from the night before. Contact the front desk again. They finally came to fix it.
