Eh
Once again my heat/air conditioning unit stopped working in the middle of the night and very loud “adult time” noises coming from rooms on both sides of me literally all night long. I mean have your fun but be respectful of your neighbors.

Dirty rooms.
Upon checking into the first room, I immediately noticed it was unkempt, with hair and fingernails scattered on the floor. I reported this issue, and the staff provided me with a different room. Unfortunately, this second room was even dirtier than the first. The bathroom had hair in both the tub and on the floor, and there appeared to be mold growing in the bathtub.

During the evening was pretty quiet and staff was friendly. Cleanliness of the room was just okay. Stains on the curtains, wall stains, musty stale smell in room. Not the worst hotel, but certainly not the highest quality either. Very middle of the market place. Surrounding area wasn’t too sketchy but wasn’t as nice as I was expecting. People smoking pot in the parking lot when we arrived was a turn off. Probably wouldn’t book here again.
