"When I first was booking here, it looked more like a motel for versus a hotel. Once we walk into the facility, our room was amazing. The customer service was great. Everything was clean. The showerhead was something I haven’t seen before in the hotel. They gave us every single thing that we needed plus more it was quiet no loud noise just very peaceful and we would definitely be booking here again. I recommend if you’re reading this to check it out for yourself."
