Guest review

4.0

The room was very big and clean besides the bathtub. The beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was also good. They had a good variety of food including fresh made warm breakfast options.

The hot tub was not working. The pool was really cold and had large chips of the liner loose in the bottom. Our shower was full of hair and not draining properly. The stair well was being painted and had not been vacuumed in quite some time.

I wouldn’t come back. Not worth the money.

3.0

Staff came off nice.

The room was open but not spacious. Just to come into the room the door was right next to the bed. It was very tight. The air conditioner barely worked. Ran all night and barely cold our room down. I couldn’t get to sleep until around two am since right above me the guest were very loud and jumping and staff didn’t seem to do much about it so my kids barely slept. On top of it our phone didn’t work in the room to call the front office. Our lights barely worked and glitched while on. Our bathroom door didn’t even lock.

Convenient

It shows a hot tub but there wasn’t one. The room smelled of wet dog. The breakfast was minimal and the yogurt was expired by 2 months. When I informed the staff he was like “oh really”
