Air conditioning effective, staff helpful, parking convenient and safe, and room clean. It's an older property and I loved the uniqueness of the room! King bed, sofa, desk, easy chair, refrigerator and microwave. Fly in the ointment - no coffee in the room, but fear not - it's in the office.

Good value solid option for work and business trip

This is a solid option for a business trip in the area. Be sure to request drinking water at front desk, as area tap water isn't drinkable. Room and bed was clean and comfortable. Staff was courteous.

Nice Pool

Average hotel in an out of the way location. Nothing stood out good or bad. It was a good place to get a good night’s rest. No frills. The pool is a nice size. No fences, trees, or buildings blocking the sun. No breezes giving you unwanted chills.
