The location was great. The bed was comfortable, the foam mattress on the sleep sofa was very uncomfortable. The breakfast area leaves fruit and drinks out 24 hours. Breakfast was fine. Outdoor patio was nice.

Not managed well up to standard.
Breakfast was terrible. TV did not work in bedroom and staff was clueless and could not care. Changed original room as shower ceiling was moldy. The hotel condition is nothing like it was a few years ago.

Stale dips in beds
We prepared the pullout for my 4 year old and out of the bed popped someone's stale used dip. It was pretty disgusting

Acceptable for a short stay
The price was reasonable and the beds were clean and comfortable. However, the room itself was cold and uninviting, the hard, uncarpeted floor was sticky in multiple places, and the couch was incredibly uncomfortable. The bathrooms in the lobby were out of toilet paper and the bathroom in the pool area was clogged and overflowed. Vending machines were out of order and the continental breakfast was not up to par with others we've had. It was an acceptable place to stay for one night but we were all thankful we didn't have to stay longer.

Good from afar
Seemed nice, but closer inspection revealed cracked tiles, dirty wallls, a dried up contact on the bathroom floor, and some rubbery substance on the toilet lid. Plus, the pool had caution tape around it, horrible layout for breakfast.

We’ve stayed there multiple times while visiting family in the area. The condition of the hotel and rooms has gone down hill. No glasses for beverages in the room, dishwasher not unloaded, no smoke detector in bedroom, smelt like ‘weed’ was being smoked on the floor. Staff was great. Management and overall needs improvement.

Pool closed and bad weight room.
Booking said it had pool and weight room. The pool was closed the whole time and the weight room was a cheap tread mill and cheap stationery bike. Room is nice just be aware they lie about the things they have.

The bathroom tub and floor had boot tracks on it. The toilet was broken. We didn’t notice the toilet until the morning and were leaving. It was operational, but water sprayed out of the tank. We reported everything to the front desk. I have stayed at this hotel many times, but it has been a few years. It felt like they needed to do an update.
