I stayed for my one year anniversary with my girlfriend and we had a WONDERFUL time at our stay. The room was extremely cozy with a fireplace on one side of the bedroom but also exposed to the living room as well. The kitchen was amazing and cooked a few meals to save money. The pool is really nice as well and staff is friendly!

Very quiet!! Friendly staff, great room! if you arrive at night, good luck, most of the the landscaping lights are not working to include the light display of the unit sign which led my wife and I down the road. A quick phone call to the desk led us back to the unit, please add more lighting!

3 night stay for event in galena - 1br apt. everything was clean, no chemical odors (cleaners, pets, smoking, etc). plenty of space - accomodations much larger than listing picture. bed was incredibly comfortable. cookies in the lobby; we hung out and enjoyed the fire, colored, watched the projection tv. we used the game room, and workout room on the lower level. there was plenty of parking. very peaceful! absolute quiet at night. the ONLY negative was the peeling paint in the pool area - we didn’t go swimming but you could see the large sheets of paint peeling off the walls. we will definitely stay at this location again.

The room and trundle bed were comfortable. Having an oversized jetted tub and fireplace was a romantic bonus. We enjoyed using the little patio. I would recommend getting a room overlooking the woods and on the 3rd floor, as ours was, for the great views. Game room had a lot to offer. We were the only people using the pool and hot tub when we went there. The hot tub needs repair as there are a few broken tiles on the seat with sharp edges. Staff was great and responsive to requests, especially Jude! I would definitely recommend the WorldMark.

Not sure if we will keep going anymore...

The murphy bed mattress was terribly uncomfortable. The pool and hot tub were out of order, but no one bothered to inform us at check in, so we learned about it after getting changed into swimsuits and heading to it to find a note on the door. The hallway, and later on the lobby, reeked of marijuana. When I asked the front desk person about the odor, they said that they were aware and knew who was probably causing it- but didn't know if they were allowed to say anything! The blinds on the windows were very dusty. It's sad because we have been staying here since 2015 and the place has really gone downhill.
