Won’t be staying again.
Pros:

I liked that it was close to restaurants and grocery stores!

Cons:

Our room was not very clean. The floors looked new but had dirt in every corner. The beds as my husband said looked slept in. The shower door wouldn’t stay shut so we had to put in a wash cloth on the bottom to make it stay closed. The breakfast wasn’t very good but wasn’t the worse. The parking lot was FULL of trash!

Cons:

Loud, could smell pot, run down, sketchy place to stay. The stairs from the pool going up a level were rusty with metal edges sticking out. Very dangerous!

Yuck! Never again.
Pros:

At least there was hot water for the shower and the toilet flushed.

Cons:

No ice bucket, but, no matter, there were no vending machines. Room keys only worked once and had to be reprogrammed every time we went back to our room. No shade at the pool. The areas around the building were full of trash and the back stairway was in a dangerous dilapidated condition.
