Absolutely outstanding staff! They could not have been better! Scott, the manager and other fill-managers (?) were extremely accommodating. We were a group of 15 or more in town for a funeral. The breakfast/lunch/bar staff were just the best!! Will definitely be staying there again!

We arrived the hotel and there is no room ready for us. The first room was under maintenance and the second room is not cleaned. We requested a cancellation for the room. The front desk said the refund is processed but I never received the refund! Avoid this place.

Staff was helpful. We arrived about an hour early before checkin and were accommodated. All staff we interacted with were friendly. The hotel seemed dated. Pool was cold and the bottom of the pool all cracked. We went to the bar area in the evening, maybe 8pm- no one to be seen and lights off. Amenities disappointing.

Hotel did NOT have a habitable room for us to stay in. The room they tried to put us in had a mold infestation and smelled like death. Even the front desk staff refused to walk into the room. They sent us away and said we should find another hotel and guaranteed us a full refund. This hotel is a health hazard - don't visit it.
