Front desk staff was great. Very professional and friendly. The rooms were decent. A little dated, though. I stayed over night on a monday, and it was really noisy. I could only imaging staying on a weekend. There were some questionable characters around the property, but the staff handled it once an individual got out of hand. My issue was that there was easy access to the inside of the property.
