The shower was cold, only after running it for 25 minutes did it turn warm. AC made a weird noise all night long. Water pressure seemed to explode out of the facet, drenched my arm when first turned on. Felt more like a quality inn rather than holiday inn.

The bed was very comfortable and I enjoyed the breakfast. When we went to go swimming, the pool was too dirty for our comfort level to go swimming. There was a bunch of black stuff on the bottom. The room layout flowed well. The bathroom was spacious but the shower was very dirty. Our drain wouldn’t drain until I removed the hair clogging it. It wasn’t my hair, it was the first time we were showering there. Our stay was overall good/okay, it wasn’t terrible but it could have been cleaner.
