Check in was very easy and reception very friendly. Booked 2 rooms, breakfast minimal, clean. One rooms screen was virtually hanging and shredded. I think for the price some minor upgrading could be done. I have booked over 10+ rooms in the past year and do understand the deposit clause they ask for when running your credit card. This is the only place where the $100 deposit went thru on my VISA. Usually it's pending and then taken off. I will now have to make sure the amount charged gets credited.
