Pros:

Location, super clean, staff

Cons:

Breakfast horrible. Bacon not cooked enough, no multigrain bread selections, no plant based milk or cream, fruit ok

I would do it again if I could get same rates. Decent
Pros:

It was convenient location. It was clean

Cons:

Only one elevator and it was slow and noisy. I could hear everything around the rooms even on the floor above us. The bacon was almost raw and turkey sausage was not good. Girl struggled to keep restocking food. Rm 207 was not cooling

Overall, it was a nice stay and I’ll likely return at some point.
Pros:

The location was right where I needed it. I liked the big room for sure, it’s a nice setup.

Cons:

Honestly, the price was definitely too much. I’m not sure why it’s so high. I guess I expect more for that amount of money. The tub caulk was gross, I didn’t want to shower. The place could use some more cleaning.

I paid nearly $200 for a room I could not comfortably breathe in, relax in, or sleep in.
Pros:

The location was convenient, and the room itself had adequate space. Unfortunately, the negative issues with the property and my inability to sleep overshadowed the positives of the stay.

Cons:

Given the multiple serious issues that significantly affected the cleanliness, comfort, safety, and overall usability of the room—and the fact that I was unable to get the restful stay I paid nearly $200 for—I believe I deserve a full refund for this stay.

There were several things I did not like about this property, and unfortunately they affected nearly every part of my stay.

From the moment I entered the room, there was a strong mold/mildew-type odor, and it appeared to be coming from the air-conditioning/HVAC unit. This was especially concerning for me because I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), which can cause reactions to environmental triggers such as mold, mildew, smoke, strong odors, chemicals, and other airborne irritants. Symptoms from exposure can include headaches, dizziness, nausea, flushing, itching, hives, swelling, chest tightness, wheezing, shortness of breath, rapid heart rate, gastrointestinal symptoms, and in more serious cases, an anaphylactic-type reaction.

I fully understand that I cannot control every environment I enter or every person I may encounter in public. However, when I pay nearly $200 for a hotel room, I do have a reasonable expectation that the hotel will provide a clean, comfortable indoor environment that is not filled with persistent marijuana odor or a mold/mildew-type smell coming from the HVAC system.

The marijuana odor on the second floor was also extremely unpleasant and concerning. There was no noticeable marijuana smell in the first-floor lobby, around the first floor, near the pool area, or while riding in the elevator. The odor became immediately noticeable as soon as I stepped off the elevator onto the second floor.

I was in and out of my room numerous times throughout the afternoon and into the evening, and the marijuana odor remained strong throughout the second-floor hallway. It was not a brief smell that disappeared after someone walked by. It was persistent for hours and honestly gross.

A comfortable stay
Pros:

The hot basic breakfast was comparable to most breakfast shops and included with the price. Staff was very friendly and our room was large and very clean. Coffee, ice water with lemon were always conveniently available in the lobby.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the price was double from the past for the same amenities because of the diffence in booking dates. 3 months from now, the price will be half of what we paid in August.

Worth a stay!
Pros:

Clean! Rooms for up to 6ppl per room!! Happy front staff!!

Cons:

A bit more expensive for the same things I can book cheaper at other motels. Beds theirselves are not the easiest to get a comfy sleep in

Beware mold smell.
Pros:

The staff was nice.

Cons:

MOLD MOLD MOLD. As soon as we walked in, I could smell mold and mildew. We brushed it off that it was the pool. Got into the room and it was awful. But at that point we had no choice since we were there for an event. The next morning, we both woke up with horrific sinus pain.
