8.2/10 Very Good! (1,002 reviews)
Room wasn’t ready until 10pm, lady said we could check out late … at 11:45 they were knocking on our door wanting us out or we had to pay $30 fee. Not okay. However the room was absolutely amazing! VERY spacious & cozy. Had dishes, amazing jetted tub & a washer & dryer. Crappy check in, poor customer service but once you are finally let in your room, we loved it. We will probably risk it and stay here again. Great pool area also. Very clean, well maintained.

Nice campus. Easy to get to.

Every service member we encountered was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. One thing to note is the concrete walk ways make maid-cart rolling and luggage (on wheels) rolling by or above rather annoying at 8am or earlier when thumping footsteps above you had kept you awake till 2am. The staff made up for that annoyance with their "kill 'em with kindness" spirit. They have customer service nailed! Beautiful pool and tasty offerings at the Grill, too!
