while the property is in a great location the rooms are “pretty tired” and are in the need a very good facelift. Also there is room to improve in the cleanness department as well. Next to highway rooms are noisy On the positive; good diners and bar, friendly staff, good garage.

There was nothing wrong with the room. I was not expecting a disabled/wheel chair friendly room. But that did not bother me. There was a little bit of noise from the Kids in the pool and people walking right past the glass door to the pool area was a little surprising. But that is just details. Stay was comfortable and easy. The TV aerial in my room had broken away from the wall - so that needs fixing. But it is easy to get around with good undercover parking. I will stay here again.
