The staff was very friendly. Clean facility. Comfortable beds. There is not an elevator, which was surprising. Try to get a room on first floor if possible or you'll be hauling luggage and what not up stairs.

I called the hotel asking how much a deposit would be with two kids and two dogs, I was very specific to ensure ease with check in, Night staff around 9 when I got there basically told me they quoted me for a room for TWO CHILDREN and two dogs, then told they couldn't accommodate me unless I booked a second room, however would not offer me a conjoining room, mind you all of this after this man looked me in my face and told me he thought I meant two kids and two dogs...... just not good business. Waiting on a refund, was told by front desk clerk the manager was called and approved a refund, but not showing anywhere so far so we will see. Very dissatisfied with this.

Was charged a $50 deposit that was not mentioned while booking. Went to take a shower late in the evening only to find various hairs in the tub. Front desk staff offered me a bottle of cleaner and a towel to take care of the issue. Then the tub was not draining so i checked and took out a huge foul smelling clumps of hair. Told the front desk and i get a call later” I hear you have complaints?” Told him a out it and he came and looked at the issue. They claim no smoking in rooms but there was a cloud of smoke in the hallway.
