I stayed for two nights. No issues, even though there were at lot of people at the hotel that weekend, it was nice and quiet. I was able to relax as planned. Also, the hotel is located in the middle of everything so I won’t take long to get to where you need to go.

We booked a hotel with a pool, hot tub, and a bar. Having those 3 amenities were the main reasons we selected this hotel. The bar was not open either night we were there. That made it very inconvenient for us. The pool area was dirty and only one jet worked in the entire hot tub.
Then in our room the air conditioner did not work at all.
We were very disappointed and will not be back
