Not the best option.....
Our room was filthy. It was clear it hadn't been deep cleaned in a very long time. Bed was not comfortable. Breakfast was offered but it was not great at all. The person at the customer service counter was kind.

The staff was friendly, the lobby and room were clean, and overall it was a very pleasant experience. The only thing I was bummed about was the jets in our jacuzzi tub were not working, but that wasn’t a huge deal. Just a bummer!
