This is a very nice option especially if you are traveling with family or group and staying more than one night. There are two bedrooms two bathrooms and a kitchen. It’s basically a small apartment. The staff was great and everything was clean. Parking was easy and pool was nice also. Great for the price.

The property is somewhat dated, but clean and comfortable. We were only there overnight but it had a lot of amenities for a family to enjoy an extended stay. Priced reasonably.

Joann, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Nice rooms. Very comfortable. Only downside was mildew in the bathroom ceiling vent. And the second bedroom had no tv, plugs behind the bed and now ceiling light or fan in the room. Air conditioning doesn’t get very cold in the rooms. Very stuffy.
