The 2nd room we stayed in was great. Clean, smelled good, and beds were comfortable, but the first room we had smelled like urine and there was hair on the toilet seat. The front desk person gave us a bit of a hassle when we asked to switch rooms. He said he had to come up to our room and smell it himself. Then he said he didn’t smell anything, but we insisted that we did and we were the ones that were going to be sleeping in there, so then we had to go back downstairs so he could see what roo. To switch us to. It wasted our time and seemed unnecessary. Once we switched rooms, everything was fine.

Nice staff overall nice hotel for one night
Bed was not great but we were exhausted. Air conditioning unit wasn’t uncomfortably loud. Shower had mid pressure but was hot! Bathroom was very small. Overall worked fine for one night and price was right. 3/5 stars with very nice staff

About 10 minutes after I booked the room they called to tell me that they didn’t have my room due to overbooking. And to call who I booked it with for a refund. Then 10 minutes after that they called to tell me they had a room with a king and sofa bed. Which I had originally booked a room with two beds. So I agreed and when we got there I was pleasantly surprised of how big the room was and it had two sofas that turned into beds! It was 5 of us, 2 adults and 3 kids, so we had plenty of room!!

Mixed bag, would do in a pinch.
First the good, room was clean and beds were comfortable. The bad, outside our room anywhere in the hotel it was hot. Not only that but this hotel has an odor. We couldn't figure it out, but if you've smelled this before you know it. Didn't matter where you were the smell was there. Breakfast was not good either. I try to be pretty fair, but it just wasn't good. Finally, room service did not check the clocks in our room when they cleaned and the alarm clock in the room went off at 2:30 am, which when you don't know how to work it and it's dark is a bad combination. We've stayed at other hotels in the area for about the same rate and they were better. I guess this would do in a pinch, but we don't be back.
