Exceptional

Superb

Liked: Location
Disliked: Furniture was old. We couldn't even hang out in the living room area (2 bedroom suite) because the couch was so worn out and old. That was the main reason we got the suite, so we could sit in that area and talk.

Budget friendly. Clean.

Liked: Right off the highway. Clean. Staff was friendly. Budget friendly. We just slept there on a road trip. Perfect for what we needed.

Poor

Liked: Nothing!! It smelled like pot and the bedding stunk. The smell of the place was terrible like people were smoking pot and it was on the bedding. The smell is terrible and will never stay at this place again. Not a good property for families!!!
Disliked: This place needs to clean up there properly and make it a non smoking inside the buildings.

Passable

Overall the hotel and stay...

Liked: Very clean. Nice apartment type set up in the rooms. Very comfy beds. Air worked nicely. Everyone was super nice that worked there
Disliked: There were loud noises throughout the night that sounded like an air unit or something coming on. The pool was closed the whole weekend and I intentionally booked this place for the nice pool. I wish the property manager had reached out to me to let me know the pool wasn’t available as I had booked this for a girls trip for me and my daughter (4) and she very much looks forward to swimming together.
