They were not very welcoming
Pros:

The pool

Cons:

There was no complimentary breakfast. No guest laundry. They were very militant about check in/out times. We waited in the lobby until 3 pm because they said no rooms were available for early check in. At 3 pm there were plenty of rooms all at once. Check out was 11 am. As we were leaving about 11:03am housekeeping was knocking at the door and the lobby was calling the room to make sure we had left.

Fairly disappointing especially for the cost. it felt like a rundown Super 8. Certainly not like
Pros:

The room was very large but overall the entire hotel was rundown. Carpets in the hallways were dirty, the windows in the doors weren't cleaned, the walls were very scuffed.

Cons:

so many things. Horrible noisy location, we were woken up at 3am by loud laughter and kids running back and forth, lots of car noise. Soft beds, small lumpy pillows, lots of long black hair on the shower curtain. The secuirty guards placed throughout the hotel didnt instill any confidence in the hotel...what were they expecting to happen? It made us frightened for our safety! We wont be back!
