The overall breakdown of this property is that it has the basic hotel accommodations, but where they really lack is the option of the pool ability. The pool is in a very unsafe condition and should be closed off until any/all repairs are made. Tiles braking as you walk on them, hand rails very loose, windows breaking away from its structure, mold growing on multiple areas due to insufficient exhaustion of the humidity within the pool area. It should be closed for anyone's safety.

Nice and clean, lots of construction going on, outdoor swimming pool is a joke. So small, not even as large as a jacuzzi. Clean room, but towels were scratchy and not soft at all, Actually hurt my skin while toweling off. Location is problem, very hard to find and crammed behind other buildings. Parking was hard to drive, very curvey and had large tractor equipment at the front door. Would not go again.

I love how big the rooms are. There is tv in the rooms and in the living room. 1/2 toilet and 1 t/b. The beds are comfortable and the ac is really cold. The breakfast was good too except for the pancake machine that always runs out of batter. The hotel is near a grocery store and lots of restaurants around it too. The toiletries were Dove. The front desk wasn't there when i checked in had to wait for 5-7 minutes before she showed up. I like that they have a mini convenience store in the property.

Probably not somewhere I would stay again

Room was nice and beds comfortable. WiFi was good 1st day or 2 and then horrible for the next 2 days. Was good again the last day. Not happy with that. Pool was horrible and this was The Reason I booked this hotel. So very disappointed. Absolutely nothing like the picture online! Keypad to room TWICE did not work and we had to go back down to main desk to rekey. This was frustrating. The second time was at 9:45pm after being out all day and the key wouldn’t work! I was told by another guest staying across the hall that another family had been let into my room that afternoon when I was not on property! I have no idea how this could occur and no one on staff could explain to me what happened. But the guest I spoke to knew the family and even his son agreed that the family somehow got into my room. They were all part of a baseball tournament. Breakfast is ok…not a lot of options but decent. One thing that was really nice is the scent in the hallways and lobby. Very nice.
