The cleanliness for the price was outstanding! I will definitely use this hotel again. They also offered housekeeping every single day of my 4-day stay at no extra cost. Breakfast at the cafe ON the property was complimentary every morning. Pool was clean and gym was open 24 hours. You can not beat these offers for the price in this whole area!

Great stay, until the early AM. The walls are a bit thin, so you can hear your neighbors. However, at 6AM, there was a woman screaming from the parking lot, not their fault, but still, the other guests were questionable.
