The hotel was in an industrial area, but close to highways, making it easy to get around. However, there was a strong sulfur or sewage-like smell outside the hotel that was horrible.

I set my alarm and got up early to stay on track and get my workout in while on vacation, only to find my key didn’t work. Went to the front desk and waited to be acknowledged by the 2 ladies looking in the back of computers to charge a phone and finally one asked if I needed something. I let her know my key wasn’t working and she informed me the fitness center doesn’t open until 8AM… The sign says open 24 hours. She says at 8AM your key will work. There was paper “out of order” signs on the elevator, maybe tape up new gym hours and cover the sign.
