Pros +
- Location
- Nice location-
- It was very clean and comfortable. The staff went out of their way to accommodate us.
Cons -
- I liked everything about the property
- The front desk gal was very rude- The guy who checked us in in the afternoon was great ! Breakfast was horrible! Served "dryed out frozen bread" served various stages of what tasted like polish sausage, nasty coffee- When I complained, she blamed her boss-
- When we pulled into the parking lot there were 2 homeless people shooting up drugs by the dumpster on the property. We tried to cancel our reservation because this was not somewhere we felt safe, and we’re REFUSED a refund.

Nothing we didn’t end up staying because there were homeless people shooting drugs in their arm in plain sight on the property.
