Nicole L, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We only stayed for one night. In town for a wedding. Room was clean, beds were comfortable. Front desk check in and out was quick and efficient. Breakfast was 6 or 7 to 9. Small standard breakfast. Overall great stay.
Patrick, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Noticed stale smell when checked in. Left the room for dinner, returned, and when unpacking noticed black stuff on AC vent, which appears to be mold(?). Stain on ceiling appears to be the same. Staff says hotel totally booked tonight and can’t offer alternate room. Will request compensation.
Patrick, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

For the rates charged this was by far one of the worst places ive stayed & i travel alot & have stayed in some questionable places. The sewer gas smell is horrible. The cold water faucet for the hot tub literally came off, hot tub didnt work anyway so didnt matter. Pillowcases & sheets were dirty. Unless this is last resort i wouldnt recommend.
Melissa, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice and quiet friendly
Guadalupe medina, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Needs serious updating. Furniture, rugs old, worn and stained. Generally clean and staff were friendly, but the place itself wasn't worth the money w were charged.
James, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great check in. Breakfast options. I'm looking forward to coming back. ☺️
Kelsey, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great value!!!! Will Stay again!!!
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Receptionist was very kind and considerate of our late check-in, offering extended pool hours and recommending late night eateries near by. We were very weary of the dark location of establishment but receptionist calmed our worries and ensured us this was a safe location. We had no mishaps and will definitely be visiting again.
J, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Basic stay

Very clean. Needed a one night stay and this was perfect for the price. The building and interior is dated and our facet handle was loose, but beds were comfortable and shower was great! Would stay there again.
Carletta, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I messed up and made the reservation for the wrong day. The guy at the front desk made it happen for me, even though I paid through a third party. I can't thank him enough. The hottub was down for maintenance, but the 92 degree water temp pool and the suana more than made up for it. I'll definitely stay there again.
Aric, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly. Not able to provide info about breakfast as I didn't go down for it. I would stay again.
Bobbie Jo, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

This hotel is old and rundown. The furnishing are stained. I would not stay here again.
Timothy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I didnt like the hot tub was down. It was half the reason i went
Byron, 1-night trip
