Suite comes stocked with plates, utensils, pot and pan. We like how they had dish soap and a scrubber too. Pretty much the basic stuff you need to cook and clean up after. The grill outside came in handy and next door is a gas station and Mexican restaurant. Very convenient location.

Liked: Cleanliness
Check in prices was easy and quick. Rooms were clean. Exercise facility seemed a bit small so we didn't use it. Lots of things to buy from the "cupboard" right in the lobby. Pool was decent for doing a few quick laps. Just wish they would offer a continental breakfast so we didn't have to grab something on the go.

Yes, except maybe not as super knowledgeable since I was charged for the night that I paid on hotels.com as well. So i've been double charged.I reached out to them for a refund and they refunded, and then took the payment again.And I haven't heard since, but it's been well over a month and I can't seem to get this refund processed.
