We have stayed there years back and it was excellent service, the morning buffet was awesome back then. "NOT" this stay, Gael who checked us in and out was an excellent employee. "BUT" the king size mattress was horrible, a big sink whole. The air conditioner sounded like a jet and we were so disappointed in the buffet. It was nothing like before when we stayed. A few choices and not tasty at all. We will not stay there ever again. Back in the day it was the place to stay.

Check in and check out went smoothly and the staff were helpful in any questions we had. The tv in our room wasn't working so I notified the front desk and they sent their maintenence about 5 minutes later and got everything fixed up for us. Overall a great experience even if we were just there for one night.

The room had a mildew smell. Luckily I had some ozium in my car. A huge spider appeared in the bathroom while I was showering. My boyfriend had to come in and kill it. lol. Not a bad stay would stay again if rates were cheaper as it is not as fancy as it looks or sounds.
