Good stay

Check in was friendly and quick. The room was clean and the bed comfy. I’d give 4/5 stars because the room had a funky smell (couldn’t quite place what it was but it was noticeable and annoying) and the shower leaked water into the floor so it soaked the mat after one shower. However, I would stay again if I’m in the area — and just request a different room if it had the same smell.

Hotel good, but restaurant staff rude

Clean room, friendly staff. They have a bar in the lobby, but not a real bartender. Breakfast staff - for purchase. 45+ minute wait and a staff member with long dark hair with braids was yelling at customers to dispute their card if they didn’t want to wait and saying we’re busy can’t you see that. 45+ minutes for a toasted bagel… yikes

The hotel was very nice the staff were so helpful and accommodating. The room was clean and spacious, the bathroom was amazing and I loved the walk in shower. The only down side were the other guests. We had possibly a family in the room on top of us it sounded like there were kids running and jumping and making loud noises starting at 5 am and did continuing until we left at 8:30. But other than the hotel itself is lovely the pool was very nice and clean and had a lot of sitting options, I would definitely come back
