Heather, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Had to leave a 100$ deposit but Expedia never told me upfront. Had a lot of older kids in pool area swimming that came from across the street but didn’t cause any problems. Clean, good AC, very nice staff. Bed was comfortable. Lots of fast food choices across the street but heads up, the Popeyes was terrible!

Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The staff was nice. The room had a couple flies and it smelled stale. The Staff was nice and offered another room, but the family was not having it. We went across the street to AVID hotel. I lost a little money, after booking via expidea-due to cancelation. Hopefully Expidea can credit me a room at a later date. *God will provide!
