Nice pool. Staff was great. Hotel definitely needs an upgrade. More room amenities such as blow dryer, storage space for toiletries, better door locks, room safe, pool chairs. Most of them were broken.

Stood for over 15 minutes just waiting to get checked in while nobody else was there. Absolutely no parking unless you want to pay $8 a day. The hotel was dirty as can be. The pictures online are nowhere near what it really is. The rooms are dirty and sheets look like they weren’t even changed. If I could give zero stats I would!!!

The staff were all very friendly. The room, however, could use some updating and cleaning. I only stayed for one night. Within 10 minutes, i was bitten several times by what looked like mosquitoes. I arrived late due to a delayed flight. Other than that, I would have requested a different room or hotel all together.

The room was clean, the staff helpful. The TV would not work. The front desk came and tried. Nothing helped. Tried multiple remotes. Nope. No TV. Lights next to the beds would not work. The overhead light in room was also the switch for the bathroom. So if you wanted light in the bathroom in the middle of the night then the whole room would light up. The restaurant downstairs was delicious. Parking in a small lot across the street was extra. Or you could find parking on the street for free.
