Ok for one or two nights. Great location!
Pros:

Location, Price, rooms were clean and so was pool.

Cons:

Service desk attendants... SOME could have been more pleasant. One even came across as rude. Check in person was on great. So just depends on who you get. No air in elevator or second floor hallway. Second floor hallway smells a little musky. We were done in plenty of time, but lady started taking up condiments off tables at 9 am when breakfast is served until 9:30. I could see others rushing through line because of it. The MOST uncomfortable bed and pillows I have ever slept on!
