The room was very clean. Parking was good. The staff was friendly. And this was conveniently next to a Mexican restaurant that had great food. The only negativity I would give this hotel is at the shower did not have a lot of pressure and they charge you extra for three adults in one room, even though it was a double room.

Check in was not convenient, Place was dirty, When we got to our room it stunk, there was mold and a thin sheet on the bed for a blanket. Long story short I checked out and we did not stay there.
