The room was very nice with cool rain shower head. The only problem was the odor. The room smelled like a cleaner to treat pet smells. It didn't bother my husband but it did me.

They use photos of the nice building, but where they put me was a kind of cinderblock bunker in the back. It was ok, but not what I expected

When I arrived there was no ironing board or iron or hair dryer and I texted them and let them know I had a wedding next day and they brought it to me early. Which worked out perfect.

The only thing I didnt like is the info had conflicting check in times of 1 and 4pm. When asked 3 days prior to check in if i could check in at 3pm they said i had to ask when I received the check in text at 10am day of check in. Which I did but was told I had to have prior approval from management. Room perfectly fine and clean for a quoick one night dtay.
