The room was ok. In the description it said newly renovated rooms. Not at all. Toilet was not tight to the floor. So it banged down every time you sat on it. Television is so small you need binoculars to see it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Pool is nice and clean.

Bar and Grill was their best feature. A bit rowdy but if that's the vibe you're looking for, it's a fun place to stay. Rooms are fine, it's a motel. However, husband found it too humid
