Staff was amazing. The room wasn’t all that great. Beds were noisy. Sleep-able. Bathroom was dirty. The sink was clogged. The refrigerator didn’t work had to call lobby and they switched them. The smoking area is in front of each room so smoke was everywhere. Pool was great but needs to be cleaned more often.

If your wanting comfort don’t stay here.

Location was convenient but the rooms are need of updates, they are severely outdated and the level of comfort in the rooms are horrible , beds are cheap and horrible to sleep on and sitting chairs are not safe to sit in , legs are wobbily. Air conditioner was dripping and the refrigerator did not get cold. And the ice maker right outside our room was awful noisy.
