My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were like a nursing home, equipped with a microwave, small fridge, and a TV, but the cleanliness was an issue. The staff was rude, and housekeeping would barge in without proper notice. The front desk was unresponsive, directing me to talk to management the next day.

The hotel rooms felt very home-like with a comfortable, visually appealing, warm feel. They were clean and smelled good, but there was an issue with the outdated mattress slipcover that was plastic and blew out stale-smelling air. The service was not able to provide the type of rooms requested, but the staff was super kind and hospitable. The location was close to food restaurants and the zoo, but it was only good in the front desk area for another hotel in the area for return trips. The dining options consisted of packaged sweets like muffins and cinnamon rolls; however, the indoor jacuzzi and pool were not as relaxing as advertised. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, equipped with necessary amenities like a microwave and a small fridge, which was a nice touch. However, there were some cleanliness issues with hair and scum in the shower. The staff, while friendly, had some room for improvement in terms of behavior and service. The hotel's location was convenient and within a short driving distance of many attractions. The dining options were limited but decent. The facilities, particularly the pool, were enjoyable despite some shortcomings.

The hotel's location was not ideal, as it faced issues with a private swim class session and was situated in a run-down area. The rooms, although disconnected down the hallway, were unfortunately affected by a strong mothball smell due to roaches in some rooms. On the positive side, the staff handled themselves well and were kind to my dog and me, although room cleaning required constant redirecting for supplies. The dining experience was unsatisfactory with almost no food options available, and the facilities were lacking. Despite some positive aspects like proximity to downtown, the negative factors outweighed the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were not as clean as expected, with issues like a dirty toilet and small towels, but at least the air conditioning worked well. However, finding a bowl in my non-smoking room was a disappointment. The price was fair, but the rooms were nothing special.

The hotel had a good size and clean room with a very comfortable king-size bed, although it smelled like urine and cigarettes. The service was a mix of rudeness when we complained about magnetic keys not working and great assistance in reassigning the room. The location was convenient for various activities but had some uncomfortable encounters with homeless people on the streets nearby. The dining experience was subpar with mostly prepacked items, with the exception of the waffles. Despite some drawbacks, I would consider staying here again.
