great stay

big roomclean roomplentiful optionhappy hour
the big room on the sixth floor faced west and overlooked the pool. it was very clean, i liked that it was serviced daily. the breakfast buffet offered plenty of options and seemed well set out. i enjoyed happy hour beers at the pool bar between 12 and 1.
the corridors had old carpets with stains, it really was a very poor hotel
