Not a great experience.
The water pressure was horrible and the bed was way to firm and way to low to the ground(didn’t realize it was platform bed), wish there was more tv stations to watch, wasn’t comfortable adding my username and password to the tv to access apps. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher too and no hairdryer in the bathroom. Your housekeeper knocked but opened the door immediately the next morning at 10:40. Check out is not til noon, we could have been getting dressed. Very unprofessional. Your receptionist was very kind and helpful though, she had a hairdryer in our room by the time we got back from the store.

Room was spacious and staff was friendly. The cleanliness could use some improvement as the kitchen area had a dirty stained sponge and dirty dishes in the dishwasher. The walls are thin and you can hear everything from the rooms to the side and above you. Bed was comfortable, but it was hard to sleep because of the noise. Overall ok for a quick one night stay.
