Convenient location
Pros:

Lobby had coffee, spacious room.

Cons:

Very basic decor. Felt like a dorm room. No closet, wasted space with no shelf or counter other than in small bathroom. Only one small plastic desk chair. Can hear upstairs neighbors walking around.

I probably wont stay there again. I'll pay $30 more to go somewhere else.
Pros:

Beds weren't too hard. Surprisingly they were okay to sleep on. View was of pool area but grounds weren't very plush. Tub had spots in it and the Sink was way to LOW.

Cons:

For $190.00 I thought there would have been shampoo & conditioner and a built in hair dryer. I wasn't able to do my hair the next day.
