The pool was closed due to repairs so that was disappointing. Breakfast is later (6:00/6:30) so plan accordingly if you need to leave early like we did. The coffee was out when we went to leave and he allowed us into the breakfast room to get it from there but nothing else.

The pool is always under maintenance when I have stayed here. Breakfast was average but ok. There is always a musty smell in the halls and stairwells, and possibly a faint smell of marijuana is present. Basic place to stay, no frills. But if you don't plan on spending too much time in the hotel, it does the job at a good price. Staff was nice. Side entrance door from parking lot is never locked after hours which is a security issue.

It was a perfect spot lots of restaurants to choose from nearby, rooms were clean and free breakfast. Pool was down for maintenance which was a bummer and breakfast was your typical generic eggs and sausage that doesn't really taste like eggs or sausage lol but again it's for free so beggers can't be choosers. All in All I'd stay here again
