"The check in process was easy and staff was friendly. The outdoor pool was amazing, as was the breakfast! Some maintenance issues definitely detract from the experience -- bubbling wallpaper on the walls, rusty tub, etc. The layout of the hotel is a little strange as well. Overall, a good experience, though."

"At first some of the reviews were a little bit scary not going to lie but this place was really great me and my children and husband loved using the pool. Parking and air conditioning was great, we decide not to have our room cleaned because we were only there for two nights but they were constantly cleaning rooms around us and doing such a great job."
