Mixed reports: some rooms described as very spacious and clean, but multiple guests reported musty/damp smells, rippled carpet, slow drains and a disgusting shower; occasional bleach odor and smelly pool/kitchen areas noted.
Service
8
Generally positive: front desk staff repeatedly described as friendly, helpful and smooth check-in; a few isolated staff moments (e.g., breakfast attendant not smiling) but overall good service.
Location
8.2
Consistently praised as convenient and in a good area close to restaurants and shopping; easy to get to and well-located for travelers.
Room Quality
6
Several guests reported outdated rooms, hard beds, poor shower pressure, loose/unstable fixtures, noisy pipes and damp or musty rooms; a minority noted updated, spacious rooms.
Amenities
7.8
Pool/hot tub and breakfast are highlights and appreciated by families, though pool/kitchen areas sometimes smelled and ventilation/maintenance could be improved.
Value for Money
6.8
Mixed value perception: some reviewers said the price was fair for what they got, while others felt it was expensive given aging rooms and needed updates.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Breakfast consistently receives strong praise for variety and quality; some minor complaints about setup timing and preferences (e.g., pancakes vs waffles).
Overall Experience
7.4
Overall adequate and good for a stopover—friendly staff, good breakfast and location balance out room quality and cleanliness issues for an overall above-average but imperfect stay.

Cons:

Old and outdated. Beds are like sleeping on a board. I would have been better off sleeping in my pickup. Expensive stay for old rooms.

Wonderful except being unable to sleep while other guests shower.
Cons:

Bed was firm and a little uncomfortable
Main issue was every persons shower was unbelievably loud. Pipes screaming and you could practically feel it in our room. It woke us both up again and again all of Friday morning while many guests took their showers. I will never stay again.
