Wonderful in Every Way

Excellent stay and helpful staff. Well recognized hotel if you’re coming from out of country, which is always a plus! Good wifi and strong air conditioning. Good beds too.
Daniel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Adequate but not desired

The staff were hospitable and willing to be helpful. The dark (black) hallways were indicative of what were portrayed as 'hourly' hotels in 70's movies. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and the bathtub shower combo was hazardous. The breakfast was sparse at best.
