Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
As a single female traveler I felt very unsafe at this hotel. There are 7 buildings with 50 or so rooms each. I asked for a room near the pool/cafe area. The clerk gave me a room behind the cafe where the dumpsters are. The area was dark, there was junk stored in a corner, I couldn’t find the elevator. Two guys were doing drugs as I was parking. I went back and told the clerk I didn’t feel safe. She tells me that’s all she has. She finally gives me a room in the last building. It felt like a different zip code. My room is in the back of the last building facing a construction site. The lighting is not very good, the elevator was hard to find. I booked the hotel for 2 nights but left after the first night. I will never book this hotel again.

Property is a good value for the money. It's a bit dated with pink tile bathrooms and popcorn ceilings. Has a 1960's vibe for people around back then. Beds were very comfortable. Hot showers. Hot breakfast included. Friendly staff. Basic furnishings. Would stay there again.
