The shower was an ADA with no shower door just a flimsy curtain so the water got all over the bathroom. I will ask for a NON ADA room in the future. Also I was put on the first floor so there was foot traffic in and out of the side door next to my room, which was sometimes noisy. Other than that it was fine.

Staff was phenomenal- so friendly and above and beyond helpful! The only pitfall is across the street from the hotel seems to be a dumping area lots of grocery carts and trash which seems to blow over to the parking lot but otherwise this property was perfect!
