The beds were comfortable. But the configuration of the two room suite was a little odd for four adults. To use the restroom you had to walk through the second bedroom.

Eeh. Ok

Waited 10 minutes to get checked in the poor kid who was trying to run the front desk had to do 1 million different things at one time and he was trying his best while the management sat back in an office and just stared at the people in a line waiting to check in This poor boy was running around doing everything he could try to please everybody by himself. Made me sad for him. The hotel is OK. It could’ve been really good except that there was leftover food under our nightstand from the previous people all that obviously wasn’t cleaned up well
