The location is a 10 but this isn’t a 5-star property. I’ve stayed at this hotel the past 5 years, always for 5 nights between Christmas and New Years. The value for the price is terrible. The hair dryers in the room are trash, the TV in our room flickered on and off during our entire stay in 2024, the rooms are clean but not immaculate, the elevator takes forever to move between floors. Overall this hotel could use a major refresh and I will be finding a different hotel to stay at in Dec 2025.

Very clean rooms and common areas. Comfortable. Great pool and hot tub. Everything was wonderful for my entire stay until the last 35 min prior to check out. The housekeepers knocked on my door at 1125am when check out is 12pm. I was on a call so I said through the door that I would be out of the room in about 15 min. Then the room phone rang and it was the front desk telling me the housekeeper told her I was checking out late. I told her that I told the housekeeper that I would be out in about 15 min. , isn't check out at 12pm? It's 1130am. She said yes. I said ok l, I will be out of the room before 12pm and I was. Way to push your customers out and ruin a nice stay.
