The lady checked us in was nice. The elevator smelled like weed, and it was noise, When we went into the room the sheets had hair on the sheets and blanket. It really needs an update everything looked old. We were put on the second floor it was so loud by the elevator and traffic was loud

Staff I came into contact with were pleasant, helpful and seemed happy to help. Breakfast was awesome, our room was very clean and the pool & gym were nice. I do wish we had a microwave in our room and one of the elevators was out of order, but it didn't make any difference for us because we used the stairs. Would definitely stay at this hotel again.
