I liked the courtyard. The hotel room i had and the one i switched to were not renovated. They eaxh had a newer countertop & paint, the second one had a newer small refrigerator. The bathrooms both needed total renovations but had not been done on either & shower height would be good for womeon inder 5' tall.The staff was very nice and tried to accomodate my needs. Gate and pool codes shared by everyone. Cold hot tub. I would not stay here again snd would rate a star at best. Aduld bookstores amd strip clubs i the area did not make me feel comfortable either.
Newer countertop & mirror in first renovated room. That & paint were the extent of renovations.

It's older hotel, rooms upgraded, but small. Most important it's clean, with kitchenette for affordable price. No elevator for upper floor, small free parking spaces. Quiet, safe, recommended.

The walls were extremely thin. I sleep with earplugs but still woke up multiple times to noise outside. The sound of someone knocking on a neighboring door was loud enough to wake me up immediately. The floors were extremely dirty. We had to wear socks the entire time and the bottoms were completely dark by the end of our stay which was only one night.

Older property but in good condition. Rooms were clean. Pool and hot tub were in good working order and also clean. The grounds/gardens were really beautiful. The double beds would likely be a little snug for two adults, but overall we were very happy here.
