I love to stay at a hotel with a great breakfast and this wasn’t the place!
Pros:

I loved the size of the room. The couch was comfy to sit on.

Cons:

The breakfast wasn’t the best. The bananas were brown. I opened one and half of it was rotten. The cinnamon rolls and biscuits were dried out and not fresh.

Won’t be back
Pros:

Only thing I liked was how big the room was

Cons:

The pool was absolutely disgusting didn’t use . Was all green and nasty , paint chipped everywhere , stuff floating in pool , I also reserved my room 2 weeks in advance atleast and asked for a ground floor and got put in the third floor as I’m handicap and had problems walking , the elevator needs replaced the whole hotel needs remodeled everything outdated and the fridge stunk like old food . So I didn’t use that either .
