I usually stay at the econo lodge and suites. I love everything about this hotel. The staff are amazing especially Romeza. She is the best desk clerk I've ever dealt with.
2-night trip

6/10

The "courtyard view" just means you have a view of the parking lot. There's a stove and microwave, which I didn't use, and a decently sized mini fridge. Curtains can block out the daylight. *Plenty* of towels. The bed and pillows are adequate. I didn't use the pool, but saw a few people happy to have a late night dip. The lobby is fine to hang out in.
