Check in was amazing. There were some odors in the hallway from smoking (not cigarettes 😉) which seemed to permeate everything. The AC had a hard time getting the humidity out of the air but we had a restful night.

Pool opened at 9 and closes at 9. Say it should open at 7:30 and close at 10. Allows those traveling to use what they thought they were paying for. Bed not comfortable for my husband but I thought it was good. Pillows were too hard. Super friendly staff.

There were some signs of wear in the carpet and hallway walls. The breakfast selections were rather underwhelming.
