Very nice hotel staff was great. The room was very nice upgraded my room the second night room was larger but it felt like a massive downgrade, the 170$ room had a beautiful shower that you could see through to the bed it my wife and I liked it was kinda romantic and very nice. The upgraded room was just bigger no fancy shower extremely basic and honestly kind of disappointing. That being said this hotel was a pleasant surprise and for the price you can’t beat it. Was perfect for what we needed.

We specified we were looking for a hotel with a pool. There was no pool. We had to upgrade our room, and if you are looking for quiet this hotel is not the place for you. The lobby is ALWAYS LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS. The room is only as quiet as the number of occupied rooms around yours. You can hear the refrigerator in the next room, the ac units the water 24/7, etc.
