Despite issue.
Pros:

The room was clean. Sheets, floor, restroom.

Cons:

A 100 deposit was required. Refundable if room is in order. We only stayed one night. The shower drain was not draining. I reported it to front desk. And my 100 deposit was not returned. So my 1 night stay was charged an extra. The drain issue was not caused by us. It was an issue before check in. Was, I not suppose to report it so I could get my 100 back? I was just being honest and reported it. This seems like another type of scam.

Cons:

I would have liked to have been aware that the rooms have a low profile bed. As a person with a disability, it was difficult for me getting in and out of the bed.

The shower dial was difficult to turn on.

Way nicer than expected, best free hotel breakfast I have ever had!
Pros:

The room was very spacious and the bed was super comfy and already had extra pillows so I didn't have to ask. The breakfast was amazing and the dinner we had at the on-site restaurant exceeded my expectations! I liked the lamps by the bed so I didn't have to walk through the room in the dark when I was getting ready for bed. The AC was super good! It came with a steamer, which I actually ended up using so it came in clutch,

Cons:

There was not much bright lighting in the room, luckily, I brought a light up make up mirror, but if I hadn't. there wasn't area with good enough lighting. The sink didn't get very hot when I was trying to wash my face, but the heat in the tub was great!

Great pool, but bathroom needed a big update, and the spa consists of two rooms.
Pros:

The pool was nice and smelt amazing because of the flowers.

Cons:

room was great size but in serious need of a redo. Bathroom was old and the bathtub was peeling and broken and the shampoo/conditioner and wash that were mounted on the wall were all empty. there were two mini bottles of toiletries left, but one was half full, so I'm not sure if they were the prior guests and just left, There were no plugs for the bath or sink and there was a couple of hairs on the bathroom celling. The "spa" was a couple of rooms down a cement unappealing hallway. Location was a mile from a large group of homeless. I noticed they had security in the evening and i was approached by a homeless person asking for a cigarette outside the hotel (who told me to be safe). Over priced.
