Nice hotel & amenities, not great area
"Pool was great & had a nice deep end (8’). Hotel was overall clean and looked great. Only cons were no clean towels stocked at pool area and the area directly outside the property was full of homeless/vagabonds making it not feel very safe taking a step off the property."
