Clean, Comfortable, Good Value
Overall, a fantastic facility that is kept very clean. Parking was easy and convenient but check-in was very long and inefficient. We waited in line for over 40 minutes. The room and beds were very comfortable with everything we needed except it was advertised with a Murphy bed that ended up being inaccessible.

Would not stay again
There was a roach in the room. The tub was clogged for most of the trip even after someone tried to fix it. Couldn’t check in til after 6:15pm, front staff was not friendly except for the blonde (didn’t get her name). Parking is horrible.. across the street. The DJ and restaurant was nice to have around the pool area
