The staff was helpful. The first room we got had the smoke alarm going off. The second room they gave us smelled like smoke, but the third room was acceptable.

As I entered the front lobby it wasn't in proper order, there were leaves on the floor from people entering and exiting. But the room was clean. It was very nice for the cost. I enjoyed my stay.
