Staff at the property were great. When we woke up there was no water. I asked for a refund and the guy at the front desk told us we would get it through Expedia. I am still waiting for the refund.

Dirt dust and mold visible on kitchenette backsplash, shower, sink, wood divider between bed and living area, chairs. The front desk staff were amazing. I really enjoyed my stay just wish more attention was given to cleaning the rooms.

Will go elsewhere next time we’re in town.

At times I felt unsafe on the property. Men were drinking and drunk at the pool while families had their children swimming. We rode the elevator with a shady looking fellow that had a heavy coat on and it was 99 degrees outside. The room was just clean enough. However, the ladies working in the lobby were nice and laid back. They charged my credit card for both nights despite the fact I had paid for them through hotels. Com. I have a dispute ongoing.

The entire staff was very professional. Now the elevators needs ac ( too hot) , it was an uncomfortable feeling while waiting to get to my floor. The toilet continues to run but stops when you tap the handle ( flusher ) several times. The hotel is near, several restaurants which is convenient.
