We have stayed a couple of times here before, however never again! The Hotel allowed a group of men to drink and get drunk in the parking lot! these men looked very shady they had no shirts on, had gang tattoos all over their body, they were loud until late in the evening. Beware people, especially if you plan to stay with your family. Honestly, we did not bring it to the attention of the hotel personnel because the men were intimidating. We were there for work, and in this hotel, there is a lot of men that are in town for construction work. bottom line is we will never go back, and we do not recommend this hotel.

Construction prevented use of the pool & access to ice machine on our side of the hotel. Also, no breakfast. No microwave. I apparently reserved our room through Expedia so didn’t get reward points for the two night stay. Location was great, bed was great, quiet room.

The rooms were nice and clean and spacious. Some of the staff were friendly and helpful Others couldn’t speak English and couldn’t help with questions. Amenities list Microwave, but none in the room. Breakfast- but none offered due to construction. (Could have had a sack/to-go breakfast of pastry, fruit and drink to accommodate) Pool and jacuzzi were also closed with caution tape.
