The room was clean, had some minor wear and tear on the carpet and some furniture. The bathroom kind of smelled like someone had smoked a cigarette in it before. Toilet paper holder was broken. The walls were very thin. Overall it was a good 2 night stay
Mr. Puerto at the front desk was very friendly — always a smiling hello or goodbye any time I entered or left the property. Check-in was a breeze, too.
Staff were very friendly and close proximity to all entertainment
