Hotel is obviously in the midst of an upgrade. You can still find some items of the former named hotel around. TVs, bedding, carpet all newer upgrades. Breakfast needs some work, but change tales time and plenty of breakfast spots close by. Great Mexican restaurant next door.
The stay was good. It’s clean and quiet. Staff was ok, not really welcoming. We couldn’t watch any Television because they had no remotes for us to use. Hoping I get my $100 deposit!
The room wasn’t clean very properly. They don’t give you enough towels for two. The fridge in my room didn’t even work and Spoiled some of the food that I had. There’s a lot of loud people during the night
