Christopher at the front desk was extremely helpful. When I was assigned to third floor room, he offered to carry bags for me because of my disability. The next morning to my surprise I’ve been moved to a first floor room. He was such a helpful, kind, and courteous young man. You should be proud to have such wonderful staff.

Way overpriced for the quality that was actually offered. This place is a quick-flip renovation slapped on top of an old beat up motel. Any of the nicer updated parts were completely negated by the glaring issues leftover from the original; worn out barely working elevator, overall weird vibes. They also listed it as a Queen bed in the room on the booking but it was clearly just a Full bed. We cut our trip short and left a night early. The staff were very nice though.

Breakfast was decent. Staff was excellent. Rooms have been updated, but the TV buffered very often. There was mold in the bathroom and a broken toilet paper holder. Could have been better. Beds were half way decent.

Lots of homeless type shady people hanging around the parking lot area mostly at night. Pool water was green. The room itself was satisfactory. Desk staff seemed understaffed as several times during my stay I couldn’t find anyone because they were doing something elsewhere on the property. When I did have contact with them they were friendly and helpful

The neighborhood is very sketchy with strange people wandering around. Granted the hotel office staff called the police to sort out the vagrants. The rooms seemed updated and clean but the hotel exterior was very dirty and dated. The other clients were also sketchy. I would definitely not stay there again.

Don't stay here.

Wifi didn't work, television didn't work, with cabling and wiring hanging out of the walls and outlet, pool and spa were closed. Front desk attitude was basically a sorry we're working on it and offered no fix or offer of compensation or discount.

This time a lot of things were not working right. The sink in the bathroom had no hot water. The bathroom flooded after I took a shower. The phone didn’t work. The girl that checked me out was not very nice. She was to busy on her personal phone. But the times I stayed before were nice. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. I think her name was Sheri😊

The staff was pleasant and professional, but the room left alot to be desired. The bed was not very comfortable, but we were tired enough to not care. Our TV only worked occasionally. The pucture came on for a few minutes at a time. But the real disaster was the shower! The water leaked out of the wheel chair accessible shower and eventually out of the bathroom! The staff looked at the problem and made note of the horrible construction.
