The hotel is nice and clean, but definitely there were areas we found were a bit worn down. Also, they only had 2 washer/dryer for the entire hotel and both were not functioning when we were there. Also, no sign was placed on 2 of the non-functioning washer/dryers so a lot of time was wasted figuring that out. On another night, I used the hotel gym and children were in there playing on the machines and with the weights like it was a playground! Overall, we enjoyed our stay since we were out and about most of the day.. but will probably chose a different hotel in the same area next time.

They actually checked us into a room that was not cleaned and occupied at first! Very frustrating until they gave us the next room. Overall, the room was way bigger than expected and quite comfortable. Will consider staying again in the future.
