Overall a good stay a little pricey.
Pros:

The room was very clean.
The staff were nice.

Cons:

Parking, especially for trailers is horrible.
The club across the street was jamming till late made it hard to sleep.
I paid 153 more dollars than my friend across the hall.

Great room, great value, super comfy bed!!!
Pros:

The facilities were clean, bed was very comfy, the breakfast was delicious with lots of options, and the staff were great! I really enjoyed my stay!

Cons:

My room was on the bottom floor and there were several ants found throughout the room. Not major, just annoying. I alerted the front desk about it and they apologized and said they'd take care of it.

Had a great stay!!
Pros:

Stayed at the hotel July 24-27.

Pros
Nice and clean rooms
Friendly and helpful staff
Comfortable Beds
Safe and quiet neighborhood
Breakfast (Satisfactory, but really not complaints)

Cons
The bathroom toilets need to be replaced. They are so low that I literally had to brace myself when trying to sit down. I don't have a lot of mobility issues so I don't get accessible rooms, but these seriously need to be replaced with newer ones with bigger bowls (my hand kept touching the toilet water every time I wiped) and taller height.

Would I stay here again? Definitely!!!
