The room was nice, however our view was of someone’s pet ducks! Not kidding! Caged ducks, yes there was quacking!We laughed it was okay. I did notice bent and hanging screens on the building. Not walking distances to shops stores or restaurants. Breakfast was great. The ladies kept it neat and clean.

Everything was great. Even breakfast was delicious. 24 hour coffee was good. Only 2 things seems off for us, the bathtub needs some repairs and the set up bfor breakfast at 5-5:30 in the am was a bit loud for those of staying in the 1st floor rooms, closest to lobby. But overall, this place is great for the price. An improvement would be to allow us to get points with Hilton Honors even if booked thru a 3rd party

Terrible Experience in a very hot weather weekend!
The front desk clerk when I checked in was very unpleasant and NOT friendly at all. She did not make me feel welcome, when she asked questions, her demeanor was as if she was mad at me. The air conditioner is control by management NOT guests and my room was very hot and couldn’t adjust it, my stay was not pleasant at all. They charge $15 per day per parking when it is an open parking lot in the property, doesn’t make any sense at all, there’s not even a security guard! Again, one of the worst places I have stayed.
