The front desk staff was amazing and friendly. They saw how late we came in and checked us in quickly. However the bathroom had hair in the tub and smelled like it was not clean. The one bed had what looked like period stains on the mattress and there was a towel to cover it up. Made us question whether the room was even cleaned and if the bed was stripped after last guest.

Meh its ok.

This property is just ok. The room itself is a standard hotel room, nothing fancy. The bed was very comfortable. Saw some ants in the room. Breakfast was just meh, again the standard hotel breakfast. Powdered eggs and bacon. The pool was closed the first day, we got two different stories about it. It was disappointing because we booked the hotel because of the heated pool.
