As I pulled on to the property I witnessed a few different groups of men that appeared to me to be up to no good. I didn’t feel comfortable staying there so I went down the street to another hotel that I had stayed at before.

Staff was amazing. Before entering I got view of 3 cat food bowls next the main entrance. The lobby had a lot going on with 4th of July decorations. On the way to our room I saw more cat food bowls {I’m allergic to cats). Entering our room I saw a huge carpet stain right at the entrance.

Ok

Nice hotel but it’s loud in the early morning. It’s a lot of workers who clearly have early schedules. The banging and stomping down the breezeway started at 530am. Just don’t expect to sleep in here unless you’re a very hard sleeper. Breakfast is big lots of options. Pool is open. Fast food across the street
