Bad experience

Would not stay here again. We had a stained mattress with a bed spring sticking up which made sleep near impossible. Our shower was luke warm. We complained to the hotel and were told their inspection showed the mattress was in good order and the shower was hot. This was not our experience and we will not return.

One night Business trip.

I was working in the area and needed somewhere with a gym and pool. Found this gem and I wasn't disappointed. The gym was great for a hotel and the pool area was amazing. Everything here that was needed, the staff were friendly and accommodating. The restaurant and food were superb and again the staff were great. Couldn't fault this place for a first visit. I will return.
