The price was right for sure and good convenient location. Kevin was great, our TV stopped working and he was quick to solve our issue! Now we're back to relaxing and having some chill time. We will definitely be back in the future! Thanks Kevin
When reading reviews I really don't know what to think when choosing hotels but I can say these reviews are absolute lies. My room was perfect! My bathroom was clean and modernized. I love the kitchenette area because of the refrigerator and the large microwave. Not a mini fridge like other hotels. I've stayed in a 5 star hotel in Turkey and a hostel in South Africa that did not have these amenities. The customer service was great. 5 stars to RAJ at the front desk. He was very courteous and informative when I asked about the weekly rates.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
