This hotel has gone downhill unfortunately. The bathrooms are very dated with mildew in the showers. The rooms have poor insulation so they get very hot and the AC is anemic. Also, they are very judicious with the water and don’t have a water fountain onsite to fill your own bottle. I likely won’t stay here again.

I like to find mom and pop locations that may not be fanciest but are run with care, I wanted this to be one of those places but it wasn’t. Upon entering the room a lot looked newer/updated mixed with items in desperate need of updating. As others have mentioned it smelled musty/moldy. The goods are : they had an ok bed, provided little amenities like chapstick & a make up mirror, and had a small pool (which I didn’t use.) however the goods didn’t outweigh the negatives. Aside from the room smell the seal around the Fridge had mildew on it, and opening the shower door disturbed the 7-8 drain flies that were in the shower, it was very disgusting. Unfortunately I wouldn’t stay in this place again.
