Clean, comfy beds but NOISY.

The front desk was very friendly/helpful. There was a family style restaurant (Peppers) less than 1/4 mile away that was delicious. Beds were comfy. The only drawback was that you could hear every car noise and people talking outside all night long. Also the sink and tub were both very slow draining.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Room was old and outdated, low quality, squeaky bed frame and mattress. Room smelled of strong cleaner. Fan was very loud. Lobby and breakfast choices were excellent but tables needed a cleaning between guests. All tables were dirty and had coffee cups still sitting on the tables. Pool did not look kept up and clean.
