No weird hotel smells, nice property, bed was very uncomfortable so much so that I had to get "cupped" the next day but it was just one night so I made do. I might stay here again if I had to but for the beds it wouldnt be my first choice. Breakfast was good, parking is close, there was a pool but said it was out of service for maintenance
