Our 1st time there. Unfortunately there was no bar of soap for the restroom, no remote control for the TV, and the landline phone to the front desk stopped working “Hot” breakfast is a hot water dispenser for instant oatmeal packets. On the plus side, the jacuzzi and pool were open (until 11pm) and the night front desk clerk was very pleasant, and the staff was attentive when I brought these topics to their attention.

I like to stay here because affordable, clean, pool,jacuzzi. One thing I would like to see would be fresh water in a pitcher of some sort to drink or fill our water bottles. Also, there was a group of people Tuesday evening, partying after hours. It appeared that the staff did not address this. It was disturbing…
