Good and bad
Pros:

The room was big and felt like a one bedroom apartment. Bathroom was large and clean. Pool was great.

Cons:

Multiple furniture items in room appeared to have bodily fluid on them. I was unable to use the couch and chairs in the room for this reason. Breakfast was mediocre. Food items ran out and there wasn’t enough employees to keep up with the demand.

Fantastic pool, free breakfast buffet and friendly staff
Pros:

The included breakfast was fantastic and the indoor pool was amazing. Our kids loved the pool. It was not crowded and the place was clean and the staff was friendly. There was an awesome Mexican restaurant just a stone's throw away as well. I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is a little outdated. There is a certain smell in the hallways and in the room. Also, the hotel is not in the best area.
