I picked this place due to the outdoor pool and having a bar and grill attached. The pool itself was ok and had nice chairs but the pool deck had leftover clothes for 2 days, no pool towels the first day and the garbage can was overflowing. The bar and grill had been closed for renovations and should have been made clear before reserving a room. Rooms need updated. You had to absolutely slam the door to get it to close right. Staff was not professional and hard to find when we had a problem or a question. Unless there are some major changes I would not recommend staying here.

Our night was interrupted by the neighboring occupants. The had a physical fight in front of our door at 3am. When we went to the front desk in the morning no one was there. No one was at the desk when we checked out either. After being told they would refund the night of the fight, they still charged us for it. Won’t stay there again.

Just what we needed

Overall me & my family enjoyed our stay. The AC wasn’t as strong as we would have liked & the bed was smaller than I imagined. It was soo hot in the lobby & we had to wait to check in. But the pool was really nice & the property was well kept. I would stay again.

This property has recently changed owners. At this time, they no longer offer coffee makers in the rooms. They also don't provide a continental breakfast. It is now a grab and go consisting of bagels and two choices of cereal. The Brickhouse restaurant is closed as well. However, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was clean.

False advertisement! When we booked it said the property had a restaurant/lounge on site, pool and hot breakfast. When we arrived to check in we were told it was under “ new ownership” and that the pool was closed along with the restaurant/lounge. We were told that breakfast would be a “cold” breakfast of just muffins. Rooms were very dirty and smelled. The room had a very dirty dehumidifier in it that was not running. We actually had to go get dinner since the restaurant was closed and when we returned we decided not to stay at this hotel. We were told that since we checked in 3 hours earlier they would not refund any of our money.

Service was friendly, but options that are advertised on the hotels website and other places imply more options than they currently offer. Namely the restaurant and bar, as well as the offering of a hot breakfast. The continental breakfast left a lot to be desired.
