I did not like being on the 3rd floor with no elevator. It made my stay very difficult as I am 66 years old and have difficulty waking up so many steps. The room was very clean and the bathroom .

Beware of the rooms you book. Our room was supposed to have 2 queen beds in it. Well it ended up being 1 queen bed and a cheap Amazon gold out futon couch as the other bed. The lady at front checking us in was extremely nice and did a great job getting us another set of towels. Every employee was extremely friendly and helpful minus. He just kept saying you’ll have to contact Expedia. I’m assuming he was the manager for a few of the properties as he had a polo shirt with another hotel on it. Also beware if you are on the 2nd or 3rd floor there is no elevator if you have a lot of luggage. Other than that the place was pretty good.

Very relaxing stay for 2 nights

I enjoyed my visit, the place was clean and the pool was nice. Also, the parking lot was great. The room temperature was comfortable- the in hall air conditioner was very good The stairs were carpeted, this way I was able to drag my suitcase up step by step without damaging it. It was helpful there was a in room refrigerator for water and small microwave. Although not a dealbreaker, it would have been beneficial to have a desk for writing and/or working.

We really liked our room and the bathroom was really clean but there was leftover food left in the fridge from the previous renters and trash under the bed. Also, the lobby door handle was broken and completely pulled out from the door. When we got back to the hotel we were locked out and when we called they said nothing could be done and was told it would be fixed tomorrow. Thank God we could go up the fire escape stairs or we would have been forced to sleep in our car or find somewhere else to sleep.

Clean and good location. Comfortable mattress. No elevators, 3rd floor walk up. Promised parking not available. Empty shower gel container. Towel rack fell down. No closet. Bureau drawer wouldn’t push back in. No help with luggage. Could barely move in available space.

The room was spacious and clean: however, it was really sparsely furnished. It had two minimally comfortable beds but no chairs to sit on and no tables or dressers to store items in/on. Time spent in the room was basically spent sitting on a bed with all your belongings packed in suitcases on the floor
