Desperately needs a makeover
First I have to say the employees and service are fantastic. SO friendly and helpful. I know this part isn’t their fault but this place DESPERATELY needs updated and cleaned!! The shower was disgusting and the shower head barely worked, there were stains and dust everywhere, the hair dryer was covered in dust and dirt, and it was just super old and dirty. We were not comfortable at all. The bad part is, you pay the cost of a nice hotel but it’s far from that. Whoever owns this hotel seriously needs to do something.

Nice hotel with free parking and pool.
Very convenient location, safe area, with nice features. Parking was free and easy. Pool area was nice. Hotel could use some updating, but overall nice place to stay. Hotel staff was very nice and eager to help with anything needed.

Very poor cleaning, NO CLEANING OF ROOM.
Hotel reception, great staff! We stayed 3 nights....But after missing cleaning our room after 1 night (due to staff shortage they said) we realized shortages. After 2 night... still no cleaning or towel changed...we asked them to fix it in the morning before we went out, but at 6 pm they only changed towel after we complained again, but NO CLEANING AT ALL. Don't book this Hotel, here is lack of engaged staff and obviously managment don't check up Hotel and care.
Also in general the Hotel lobby and area around ground floor is porly cleaned.

No action taken after Text message from Front Desk
Everything was good. Except we needed more toilet paper and towels. Texted the person who had reached out about checkin received a response and said everything would be taken care of. It never was. I finally went down at 10 pm when we returned to get everything. Other than that…the cook at the resturant was not the friendliest, and was bothered I asked for an omelet to be made. He may have been short staffed, but was not kind.
