It was a an okay stay for a few nights. I like that it was a glass shower. I didn’t like the layout too much, the bathroom felt cramped. I appreciate that there were bottles of shampoo, body wash, conditioner, hand soap, and body lotion. Eco-friendly and do not need to bring my own. The room could have been cleaner, there was hair in the shower, around the sink area, and bugs in lamp shades. Window shade was busted from previous guests, so some of the panels were just completely broken. The positioning of the rear window shined light right at the bed and my fiancé would be annoyed. There was a closet but there were no hangars or a bar to hang clothes. No luggage rack. Only one night stand (I had the side with no night stand) and there was a weird crater in the floor through the carpet. The desk chair was a bit filthy with previous stains. The first hair dryer I had issues with finding an outlet that would work for the plug. I found other outlets away from the vanity and dryer didn’t work, it was replaced immediately. Otherwise, the bed was clean and comfortable. Quiet area, breakfast was okay (went once during our stay), towels were clean, check in and out was fast and easy.

Rooms were a good size and equipped with a kitchenette. Parking was plentiful. There was a decent breakfast every morning. There were washers and dryers on site. My only real complaint was that the Pool was advertised as being heated. It was not. However, when we complained to management, they finally turned on the heat. Pool was nice and clean.
