Eh

It was okay for the most part however we had someone from the cleaning service literally just let themselves into our room without knocking. There was confusion at check in regarding payment and they wanted me to swipe my card for an additional 190 dollars. No biggie but walking in without knocking made me so uncomfortable and paranoid for the rest of the trip.

We enjoyed our stay except for two things. 1, The lighting in the room is terrible with mostly overhead lights and only one lamp that didn't work well. And 2, the room was dirty in some areas with dried pasta next to the bed. Otherwise the place is decent for the price.

It was ok. The property looks like it has been renovated in recent years and the rooms look nice. The breakfast was almost nothing, just a waffle maker, hostess mini muffins, instant oat packets, and some almost gone cheerios. They did have hot coffee though. Sheets on one of the beds looked unclean but other than that it was ok.

Friendly staff, good location although just off the strip. Clean with comfortable bed. You could see that they had recently did some updates. Finding it was a little challenging at first and parking was a little challenging depending on where your room was. Good restaurant options within walking distance.
