"We, 5 people, stayed at a room with two queen size.beds and a pull out sofa bed. The room was clean, but the 2 queen size beds made a creaking sound whenever we changed our body position during the sleep. The breakfast was good with reasonable choices."

"Our stay was decent but I do not know that we would stay again. I am used to staying at Hampton by Hilton and this is definitely a few notches below. It used to be that when a hotel said breakfast included it was not just a continental breakfast but that is what it is. The pool was nice and clean. The rooms were decent and well maintained. The location was great which is why we picked it. Horrible parking and not enough space. Doors to the rooms are outside so it reminds me of a super budget motel. Price was decent so between price and location we were ok with our decision."
