Disliked: Amenities
The room was spacious. The shower can use a spruce up. The breakfast was very mid. There was a popcorn machine and cookies was nice. My television didn’t work so I tried calling the front desk but the phone didn’t either. The pool was bland and the plastic patio chairs cheap. It was good for what I needed.

Bathroom had no shower curtain and staff said they'd give us a loose one and we could install it ourselves. Room a little beat up but passable.
