Ehh
The person checking us in was professional and upped us from a queen to king sized bed, which was a kind gesture. The room was generally clean, though there was a stain of unknown origin on the shower curtain and some seemingly post-wash stains on the sheets. The matress and pillows were not the most comfortable, but adequate for the night. The included breakfast was minimal. While we did not go for the pool for this stay as our kids were not with, it should be noted that neither the pool or hot tub were in working order despite it being promoted on this site as having those ammenities. I believe we were the only ones staying in the hotel. We paid $120 for one winter night, and it did feel overpriced for what the facilities were.

Left after four hours.
The hotel was freezing and it smelled so strong of curry that it made me nauseous. They lady tried to switch me to a different room but I told her that I wanted the one I reserved online. The pool and hot tub were drained and out of order. The temp couldn’t have been above 50 degrees and the heater in my room wad on high for four hours and couldn’t heat up my room. I gave up and left.

I had a warm room with a bed to sleep in and a bagel in the morning. But the coffee tasted like it had been there for a week, the bed sheets looked like they were never changed after the last occupant. There was rarely a clerk available or any housekeeping. And the pool/hot tub was empty. I received no word on this, nor on how to check out. For all this, I would expect to pay half of what I did. I paid a lot. The woman at the desk was friendly.

When we arrived there was nobody at the front desk. Had to get a second room. First room had a broken toilet seat and the smoke detector kept chirping. When we got in the second room, there were no towels or pillows. The wallpaper border was ripped and windows were very dirty. Neither the swimming pool or the bar were open. Breakfast was very poor. Would not recommend the hotel.

We were very disappointed that the hot tub was “broken” it was one of the reasons we stayed there.. I personally think he just shut the pool are down because it was the off season.. The ice machine was unplugged as well..Staff was nice enough but overall the hotel could use some love!
