Great room for a night
Stayed 1 night in May 2025

Good value, but the pool was broken, AC was extremely loud, beds were nice, bathroom was very dated, cleanliness was above average, breakfast was average or below, there was very loud and disruptive tenants in a nearby room, and halls smelled of marijuana. Cleaning staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Check in was quick and easy, however our room was not that great. The floor felt as if it was soaked and just left sticky, there was heavy mildew smell in the bathroom, and the window was absolutely filthy. The morning we had checked out we had found a yogurt container in their breakfast area that had mold on it.

I didn't even stay.. checked in and it was eerie with some interesting people. Went to the pool and the waterside wasn't even on, not that i would use it though because the stairs looked NASTY. The only reason for two stars is because the front desk lady was super nice.

We were stopped for one late overnight stay. The reception was extremely helpful and welcoming. We needed an early start for the long drive ahead so they arranged to have the breakfast open a bit early so we could. King bed and room was extremely comfortable.

There were things that were not properly put in. The toilet paper holder and the door stop is only screwed into the sheet rock and not into the stud.

I think it depends on the room you get because my family’s rooms were nice but our room was run down. Holes in the curtains, hot water didn’t work, the drain didn’t work in the tub, and our toilet stopped flushing so we took the top off just to see that that chain fell off and wouldn’t stay on.
