Granddaughter's Birthday
I like the fact it had two TV's. My Granddaughter was able to watch what she wanted in the sitting area. The pool didn't look that clean. The beds were comfortable. I wish bacon can be a choice of meat for breakfast. Shower was small. Me and my Granddaughter did see a big roach coming off the elevator on our last nights stay. Pest control is important. Convenient to shopping and restaurants. It was an ok stay.

The experience was ok. The staff didn’t bother us! The rooms just look like jail cells kinda of. Like old but they tried to update them. But the staff was really nice and I liked the fact that they didn’t mess with us.

The bed was uncomfortable. The building in general was a paint job over an old super 8 type feel. We are trying to cancel our return booking

The front desk was extremely friendly. My first room was next to a barking dog and she helped right away to move my room to quieter one.

Really wish hotels would turn the AC on for rooms booked. Just a small bit of consideration. Check out was weird since the lady never got up and I didn't know where the voice was coming from. Overall an okay stay.
