Stayed here for work and it's was great! I work nights and my room had blackout curtains with little edges that blocked virtually all the lights so that's a huge plus for me. AC worked amazing, everything was clean and the area was quite.

The rooms have been updated, the pool area is small, but decent, the breakfast area was clean and the staff friendly. It’s definitely not the Ritz, but definitely a nice stay for the price.

Room was clean and has obviously been renovated, but the bathroom and sink area is still very old, and the exterior of the property is old. The staff was extremely nice, and I think the condition of the property is equivalent to the price.
