No fan in bathroom, so humidity in room high after every shower. Resulted in smelly room. Laundry filthy, smelled bad, and front desk couldn’t make change to run machines. Dryer barely worked requiring several runs to dry load. Clear nobody had cleaned laundry area in days or weeks and nobody checked machine function.

Shuttle from airport and check in all great. Problem was, pillows were so big and hard we practically broke our necks. Had to make pillows out of towels. Please supply some softer, smaller pillows for those of us with bad spines.

Friendly staff. Great parking. Yummy breakfast. We didn’t like the strong air freshener smell in the room gave us a headache. It was frustrating when we came back to the room and our cards didn’t work on the door. Other than that, great location!
