First, I like the point out of special things and gratitude Three special and awesome people! Debroah Front Desk concierge she is absolutely spectacular! She is not a manager, but she should be. She has all the skills and qualifications make you feel at home.! I like to think Miss Patty had of housecleaning over another wonderful person. Miss Shelly Who kept my room in excellent condition made sure I had clean towels and everything I need for myself and my daughters. Matter fact, Stay was so wonderful were extending for another week! 😁 Myself being involved in VRBO Airbnb industry, dealing with guest owners every day. It’s nice to be on the receiving side and excellent service. I couldn’t ask for a better place to stay. Great Thanks, Jackson Ladies!

Terrible stay
First time ever that i had a room where the shower didn't work. No room cleaning service. Initially gave me a room 2 levels DOWN STAIRS, NO ELEVATOR. At 83 years old i knew I'd have a problem getting a 50 lb suitcase back up when checking out. I do not recommend this facility to anyone

Never again!
Terrible stay. Broken tub faucet. Broken glass on the balcony. No ice except to purchase at $6 per bag. Staff attitude!!! A mistake trying this hotel a second time. First time not as bad as this.
