Clean hotel, but can tell it’s kind of old.
Pros:

Location is good, and the hotel is clean

Cons:

The elevator is super old and needs to be repair. It shakes like crazy. I stay on the second floor, so I just go through stairs.

Do not stay here.
Pros:

Trendy designs

The rooms smelled bad. I was itchy in their bed. There were bugs in the rooms. When I asked for a room change, the front desk was incredibly rude.

Clean, comfortable, quiet, & staff was very helpful and nice.
Pros:

I liked everything. The shower was great. I’m a senior and feel safer having a walk in shower with bars to hold if needed. I need them. Yours is perfect. Thanks

Cons:

The tv remote was hard to figure out. Couldn’t figure out which buttons to use to get what i wanted.
This is really a miner thing. I could manage eventually.

We really enjoyed this hotel. It was very welcoming and comfortable. We will stay here again.
Pros:

Pleasant and affordable hotel, room was spacious (similar to most hotel rooms). We had a king bed deluxe room. Good counter space in bathroom, magnified mirror, blow dryer and ironing board, refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker with pods included. The bed was very comfortable. I slept well each night. The outdoor pool was a plus and nicely enclosed with tall greenery. Free coffee, tea, juice and fruits in lobby. Easy parking.

Cons:

Basic TV, no Chromecast capability. Sometimes, elevator button wouldn't light up and had to press several times.

Pros:

Clean, easy and staff was friendly

Cons:

The lobby was very small and a large family/group was always occupying it for meeting almost every time I walked through it, preventing me from being able to get through and peruse snacks and drinks for purchase.

Not great at all
Pros:

The pool area was decent.
