Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The first night we got to the room it was as it was the previous time we have been there. At some point during the second day, we noticed two very large black bugs, crawling in the room on the ceiling, and we were unable to reach them in order to try to dispose of themso with that being said, we were not able to sleep the second night of our stay. We tried to reach out to the front desk to see if we were able to move rooms to no avail. We have never had anything but pleasant experiences. We would appreciate a refund whether it be full or partial.

Stayed here while a family member was having surgery. Staff was very friendly. Place was quiet at night and during the day. Very accommodating for my situation has I didn't know how long I was going to be here. At the end of the regular reservation, I was easily able to extend my stay day by day without changing my room.
