The property was a bit tired and noisy. The rooms were clean.
Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable.

Cons:

There was no outdoor sitting space except for around the pool. There were loud kids and guests in the hallways late at night. The halls and public spaces were not that clean.

Pros:

Breakfast is always good, parking is free with your room, and the location is quiet and fairly centrally located. Cynthia (the manager) is always very welcoming and friendly, and we always see her when we come. She knows us and our little dog and makes us feel very welcome.

Cons:

We stay here for the full weekend twice a month, for the past few months. You can imagine how familiar with the rooms we are. This time, our AC unit wasn't working properly. it was slightly cold, but not blowing air like it should, and after 4 hous in the room, it still wasn't cold and it was 95 outside and hot inside the room. we told the front desk, and she said maintenance would come look at it. When he finally comes, he came in with a roll of painters tape, puts his hand to the unit and says "it's cold" and says there's nothing he can do and leaves. does literally nothing to it. when I went to ask the front desk about it again, to my surprise the maintenance man and front desk lady (who I had never seen before) were talking bad about us right in front of another guest. VERY unprofessional. When I ask if there's anything that could be done, even just the repair man to come back out and look at it because he didn't do anything to it, she said "no" and that our only option was to check out completely and they can put the room under "out of order" while they get it fixed. no other solution was offered. I even asked "so to clarify, the only option you're giving me is to leave." and she said yes. slightly appalling, seeing as we spend 6 to 7 days a month here, every month. We ended up taking the face of the unit off ourself and getting the air to blow out how it was supposed to. Usually, I have nothing but good things to say about this location, but this was really offputting and makes us question whether or not we will return.

Disappointed, amenities not as advertised.
Cons:

This is the third time I have stayed at your hotel, because there is a hot tub. All THREE times I was told the hot tub was out of service once I arrived. Had I known the hot tub didn't work, I would have made other reservations elsewhere for the price. I am very disappointed with you advertising the hot tub, but clearly not fixing it for guests to enjoy.

Comfortable, clean, and convenient—I’d happily stay here again.
Pros:

The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and welcoming, check-in was quick and easy, and the room was spacious with a comfortable bed. The location was convenient for our trip, and we had a pleasant stay overall.

Cons:

There weren’t any major issues during our stay. If I had one suggestion, it would be to update a few areas of the hotel to make them feel a little more modern. Otherwise, everything met our expectations.
