"Awesome Stay"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Comfortable bed, nice room, cold A/C, good breakfast! Wish this hotel would stay as it is would like to stay next summer as well. Hope the price of a room stays competitive when it is made into a Hilton and not cost prohibitive.

My room was dirty, not enough toilet paper, and not enough towels. The room did not get even looked at within the four nights we were here. There was a cockroach in the tub and flies in the room. The slider door was also not able to be locked.
