We only stayed one night and we don't plan on returning unless it is updated and the reviews improve. We knew to have low expectations from the reviews. Convenient location near all the stores. Our room felt clean overall, but we didn't thoroughly inspect it either. Mattress was uncomfortable; it felt old and cheap. We didn't have time for breakfast so can't speak about it. Building overall felt outdated and not well kept. Staff at check-in and check-out was courteous. On our way to check out, another guest told us he had 2 roaches in his room and he was on his way to the receptionist to address the matter. We couldn't help overhearing the conversation with the lady at the front desk who was courteous and professional.

Left to drown…
The stay started out okay. At 11:00 that night we were awakened by a huge leak from the ceiling that was flooding our bathroom. I called the front desk to report it and asked for them to let us know when another room is ready for us to relocate to. We waited 20 minutes, I went to the front desk to see what was going on. The individual I had spoken with had left cause it was the end of his shift. I asked another staff member what room were we being moved to and he didn’t know what I was speaking of. He had to call the other staff member that had left for the night. We were moved to another room that was half cleaned (110)

I was really impressed with the property itself. The staff was super nice and helpful. The rate during the time of last-minute booking because of hurricane Debby really helped my family out a lot. My only recommendation would be to clean the carpets more often in the hallway and in the rooms.
