Beds are a little uncomfortable as they are way too soft. There were tar stains on the shower curtain and on the bedspread. Overall it was still a good experience.

New paint, new floors. No in-room coffee maker, had fridge. Old shower fixture that was not adjustable. I was in town for a conference, just needed a safe place to sleep, it ticked those boxes. Lot of construction and drainage issues around the property.

We liked the price for a holiday weekend. Easy check in and check out. Not a vast selection, but decent convenient store selection was available. Parking was not an issue for us, but seemed to be problem for others who parked on the side of the road. Pool itself was clean. but the pool area took a while to be maintained daily. Leftover trash was on tables and the floor. Saw a rat eating some trash. There was a party with loud music at 1am at the pool. Beer cans and pool furniture was everywhere the next morning. Overall, a decent stay with a few opportunities.
