Better than nothing
The place was clean and staff is nice. I had to ask for hand soap. The side door was left ajar twice even after pulling it shut. Not sure if patrons paid too OR are residents /druggies. The breakfast is HoRrIble. Cereal thrown all over, no coffee and breakfast nook is needing an open window... it is hot even with a fab left on.
Hole in the bathroom wall
Needing to flush 100 times
Could never figure how to turn on

We will not return
Upon check in, desk clerk was rude, and rather than answer questions, rolled her eyes, and handed us a list of breakfast and pool times. Location was run down and, although clean, in need of updating. Although our floor was "non smoking", the hallways reeked of marijuana smoke. In the morning, (fyi, 45 minutes before breakfast ended), the coffee had run out. There seemed to be no breakfast attendant present, so we asked at the front desk. The desk clerk --- who was quite harried --- told us that she'd try to get in there asap. Upon inquiring, she stated that she was "it" ... both desk clerk and breakfast room attendant. Later upon checkout, the clerk, barely took time from what was obviously a personal telephone call, took our key cards, but did not inquire about / offer a receipt.

The room was clean. Only complaint is that there was no stopper in the sink. They allow pets, the dog next door to my room started barking at 5:30 AM. It seems to be a large facility, pet owners should be in a separate area. It was okay for a one night stay. I liked the idea of a pub with pub grub attached to the facility. The Pub seems to be a local hangout!
