I appreciated the toiletries provided in the bathroom. The staff was great - especially the gentleman who took care of the breakfast buffet. Hallway and room was a little musty and there was a smoke smell coming through.

The area did not appear so great, and we were warned by locals to limit our walking. (We were plan on walking to the baseball stadium.) There are two easy and very feasible public transportation options. The pool was small and crowded, but it was a holiday weekend, so understandable. The floor near the pool/ elevator was dirty. But our room was clean, great size. Public microwave in the hall...
