Booked 5 nights 1st night we checked In late due to issue with our flight, asked for quite room we were given room right next to highway very noisy. The next morning I asked to be moved and the desk associate told me she has a nice room available near the pool. As I started to get my things ready she came to the room and asked for the key back and said that room wasn’t available and would give us a diffusion when available. She did give us another room and this room overlooked a gas station, very disappointing and the hallways were very dingy and the room looked much nicer online and would rate a 3 out of a 10
