The room had a sewage odor that I wasn’t able to tolerate and had to check out after a few hours. The smell seemed to be coming from the bathroom. The bathroom door was also broken and would not close.

****No deposit needed****
Not having to put down a deposit was helpful. The Pool and Jacuzzi were nice after a long day. The price was great. The breakfast was just a honey bun, sausage egg and cheese sandwich and a cup of coffees. You can grab it the night before if you want. Theres also a Dennys by the hotel front office.

Clean but could use minor upgrades and maintenance. Overall not bad and a solid value. Would stay again. Front desk lost my reservation and then figured it out in a way that seemed they had never served customers before or perhaps don’t interact with humans often. Fine in the end.

Con's: shower water is lukewarm at best. I often have to get my room keys reset even though I keep them away from my phone and credit cards. The first time I stayed there the air conditioner started spewing smoke. I reported it and no attempt was made to move me to another room and I had to buy a fan just to stay somewhat comfortable. That was room 109. Room 106 the door would not open for me many many times despite going to the front desk to get it reset. Pros: Anabel is the most responsive employee there. She helped me with the Room 106 problem. Another employee (I can't remember her name) wouldn't even look at me when I told her about the air conditioner smoking. The night manager (can't remember his name) always greets me by my name as I am a frequent patron there. The gym is perfect and does have good equipment. I feel very safe at the hotel and it is very clean. There is a grab and go breakfast (a egg and sausage breakfast sandwich and a donut).
