I liked the pool area and the fire pit. The staff were very helpful. The only thing I didn't like was the smell of the first floor. The second floor didn't smell that bad, but the first floor smelled like rotten eggs. Not sure why.

The place was fine for a motel, but don't expect Marriot quality. Overpriced for what you get. Everything about the room was mediocre. They upgraded the lobby area and had nice sitting areas outside by pool yard, nothing fancy. Friendly staff working everywhere which was appreciated. But they charge $15 a night for outdoor motel type parking, $5 for coffee in the lobby in the morning, the towels were thin and scratchy, the room was musty smelling. Not going back unless they lower their prices. This is a $99/night type of place, NOT $150/night.

The property was nice over all, however the heated pool wasn’t heated the entire weekend of my stay. Also there wasn’t a hot tub witch would have been nice. Finally the deposit process was rather deceptive, there was no mention on the original listing and it’s a full charge to whatever card you provided. So whatever the cost of the room is basically expected to pay double.

Read online reviews ahead and got a room in the back away from the street so it was fairly quiet. When we were there, the hotel was half empty so it was quiet. The facilities are decent. Our room was made everyday. The pool was average looking and we didn't use it. We were charged daily parking fee which I didn't remember getting charged by other hotels around there from our past stays.

This hotel was overall a good place to stay and not too expensive. Location: It's very convenient to food and things to do, which is probably the biggest plus for me. Facility: It's a little bit older and is showing its age. I wished they did some small updates such as use brighter hallway lighting or replace the carpets. This would make a big difference in my opinion. It's also nice to have Starbucks, restaurant, a pool, and work out room on site. All were kept clean and above what i expected at this price. Size of rooms were generous and felt spacious which was really nice. Parking: You need to pay for parking, but it's much less than other hotels. This was another big reason for my stay here. Negative: One negative was the pillows. I stay at a lot of Marriotts and partly it's because I tend to sleep well with them. However, I was surprised to see such thin pillow used, which was very uncomfortable for me. I should've tried asking front desk for possible alternative, but instead i just stacked two of them together to get by.

The staff member brought our food to the table one-by-one and then the last meal was brought a full 30 minutes after the first. No apologies, no comment - nothing. Pool had actual dirt in the bottom. The price of parking was not made clear at check-in.

The Hotel & Service was great. We needed to use the fold out couch which was more of a fold out chair. Im not a big man at 5'4" but that fold out was much to small for even me and the matress was in poor condition I could feel every spring and bar in it! It was so small you would roll off with very little movement, had to stay put. The Hotel itself was nice, clean, Queen Bed very comfortable. But be very concerned if you are adding in that fold out for one of your guest.

My last night at the property was extremely disappointing. When I returned to my room, I noticed a "Do Not Disturb" sign had been placed on the door—something I did not put there. Upon entering, I discovered that someone had used the bathroom and left it unflushed. No staff came to inspect the situation, check the safety of the room, or send housekeeping to clean up the mess. The lack of urgency and concern for guest security was alarming. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I would not recommend staying at this location.
