Everything seemed very good but the parking spaces seemed a little tight which is important when you’re trying to unload your car and the towels were a little thin.

The floor in room 234 was very unstable and sounded like it was about to fall apart. Please consider inspecting it.

For the price this was a clean and roomy hotel room. However, the walls are ridiculously thin. I hardly got any sleep the one night I stayed there because the person in the room next to me snored all night long! Yes, I could hear the snoring through the wall. If you're a sound, good sleeper this might not be a problem. However, if you expect a quiet sleeping experience, you might want to rethink this location.

Good place to stay. If there are people outside your door or a couple doors down talking loud then you are going to hear it. But overall good experience breakfast was very basic but still worth going and getting it.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Pool was under construction , so both it and jacuzzi were not able to be used ……and yet NOT Clarified on this site BEFORE BOOKING !! ….. only find out once you’ve paid in full and it’s non refundable Staff are unkind and unfriendly …….and NO ONE Smiles throughout the entire property , from housekeeping to maintenance to gardner(?) and particularly the FRONT DESK !! Not good or pleasant experiences every time you encounter them ….theres an oppressive vibe about the whole place that I’ve never experienced before, and being a flight attendant I’ve seen 100’s of hotels and more than most . Because of its yucky location with homeless around and the motel 6 next door, where people reside ……you couldn’t “escape” the negativity of the property, staff and environment
