Rooms were so hot. Turned thermostat off and it was still sweltering. Tried to sleep with door open but the lights blared into the room and the music from the bar could be heard across the property. Wind blew in from the portable AC duct causing a terrible rattle all night.

The carpet needs to go, my son spilled water on the carpet accidently and when I put the towel to dry it, the towel got yellow and black stains (maybe someone vomitted). If they can change the flooring to wood, then this place is okay. This experience just ruined our experience. Other than that property is okay

Our first room was smelly, the light didn’t turn on, and there was a bottle cap in the bathroom making us question how clean the actual room was. We quickly got moved to a better room. It’s quiet, the bed is comfortable but for $330/night this hotel was not worth it. Wouldn’t stay here again.
