Clean and comfortable

My stay was good. The bathtub needed to be slip resistant for safety. The shower and sink water pressure was too low. They don’t serve breakfast, I think they could at least provide a continental breakfast. I am giving 4 stars because the room was very clean and comfortable.

Will go elsewhere next time we’re in town.

At times I felt unsafe on the property. Men were drinking and drunk at the pool while families had their children swimming. We rode the elevator with a shady looking fellow that had a heavy coat on and it was 99 degrees outside. The room was just clean enough. However, the ladies working in the lobby were nice and laid back. They charged my credit card for both nights despite the fact I had paid for them through hotels. Com. I have a dispute ongoing.
