Did not like how I booked a room and got put in a building that wasn’t pictured across the street. Felt unsafe. When going to bed there was a huge roach on the ceiling and the front desk would not move us rooms or give a refund.

we were right under the fireworks which was amazing. The check in was easy and the staff was great. The room was basic and outdated, with little to no amenities for the price.

The lodge is an older property. Despite the age, it was clean and did not have a meldew smell. I took a gamble on this brand as I am a hotel snob, but this was the only option available. The iron and ironing board were clean and it had a large fridge. The bed was large and the TV was nice. It had no carpet and the AC unit kept the room cool in 98 degree weather. The bathroom has been upgraded. There is one sink with little counter space. Staff was friendly and only interacted with them at check in.
