DO NOT STAY HERE!!!
The hotel smelled like dead cats at night time. The breakfast was a honey bun. The coffee tasted like soap. The breakfast sandwich was cold. The gym had little to no workout equipment to use. I do NOT recommend a stay here.

WOW!
James was terrific. Friendly, very informative, great advise. I left my wallet (with $335 cash), and Luis called me and put it in their safe until my return trip.

Horrible property
The staff and service is great but the property is probably the worse we’ve ever stayed at. The room keys deactivate constantly for no reason, the room is super outdated and as soon as we opened the door we were hit by a horrible smell of BO that never went away and the ac unit had mold. Do not recommend at all

Overall the stay was great! They have microwaves coffee machines and refrigerator in the rooms which a lot of places don’t do anymore. A little out dated. Location was also very quiet. Close to a lot of businesses. 7 eleven Dennys a bar.
