Flowers and landscaping were very nice. Room was neat but had a smell of perfumy cleaning products. We did notice that the ceiling vent in the bathroom was very dirty/dusty and the TV remote was not cleaned, but other than that the room seemed to be in very good shape. Hotel is located near the highway but thankfully pretty quiet. We attempted to take a mid-afternoon nap & we had our windows up *awesome breeze!) and could hear staff talking loudly right outside of our window (about Mario's lunch break) across the parking lot. There were also landscapers/mowers going right past our back window in the morning around 9:00 AM, at least it wasn't earlier.

Nice and clean rooms and well maintained property. Only downside was the sofa bed where you could feel every spring in the “mattress”. Daughter ended up sleeping on the floor on top of the sofa cushions.

The rooms was very clean and updated. The property is well-maintained. The owners are friendly and helpful. The pull out sleep sofa is not the most comfortable but was ok for a couple of nights.

Disappointed

It was dirty. The bedding had stains on them from not being washed. The floors were dirty. There was red drips on the wall near the bathroom sink. Just overall not clean at all.
