There was no WiFi/internet, which we were counting on to watch F1 and handle photo/video uploads. Our first room had a broken TV, so we were moved to another. Its was that TV where we learned that there are almost no channels. New room had a window unit that was so loud it actually sounded like there was a large truck out front. When I went to check out, they had locked themselves out of the office. True story. Sounds worse than it is. They were super friendly, everything was clean, beds were good overall, the whole place looked pretty nice. We were able to have some money with the generously sized mini fridge and the microwave. I will probably go back. It seems like a great place and they’re just snatching defeat out of the jaws of success.

Entry keys hardly worked, had to change rooms, happened with that room too. Tv had one channel, girl at front desk was no help with how the remote works. The wash rags had stains, the bathroom walls were not clean. No extra toilet paper in room when only 1/4 roll was left. AC sounded like a jet engine all night long.

No hair dryer. Cream cheese spoiled for cream cheese. Shower had no shelves to put shampoo and stuff on. No TV because they were changing services. Never stay there again!

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was recently upgraded and of good quality. When we checked in we were first given a room that other people were using. Our second room’s door wouldn’t open. Our third room worked out well, but a bit unnerving to work through multiple rooms. Breakfast was poorly stocked both mornings. We ate earlier in the breakfast time, so not sure what the issue was there. No room service between nights.

Clean, quiet, and safe place. The only thing I didn't like was that my room was across the stairs, and someone sat down there smoking a cigarette, and the smell entered the room. It was very unpleasant, and the air conditioning was very noisy. Room 116.
