Reviews and Ratings
I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and one of the cleanest I've experienced. The staff was awesome and very helpful with my requests. The location was perfect, though the internet and phone service were lacking. The dining experience was disappointing, especially considering the room cost, but overall, it was a good value for money.
The hotel rooms were a mixed bag of experiences; they were not very noise friendly and smelled like dogs, giving off an asylum-like vibe. However, they were surprisingly nice, offering a comfortable space for humans.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was a bit cramped for a family of four, but it did come with a two-person whirlpool tub, which was a nice bonus. The hotel check-in process was smooth, and I had no issues with my room reservation for the first night.
