Old smelling but clean room

Pool and Hot tub os older and had alot of skin floating in hot tub...but was very busy. The hallways and hotel had an old smell like an old building. However, everyone was super nice and helpful. The room was clean but just out dated and old smelling.

Fine stay but would not come back

Staff was friendly and accommodating. The hotel lobby had a cozy feel but the rooms were pretty bare bones. It was an ok stay, breakfast and room amenities would be what you would expect from a motel. Low rating for a few reasons: Mainly due to the quality of sleep. Chip bags have more filling than the pillows provided, the staff did give us extra pillows which was great but needed like 3 to feel like one normal pillow. The bed was old and firm, the topper they had on the bed helped a little but was tossing all night and felt achy in the morning. Definitely not a restful sleep. Nothing against the hotel but if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs. Parents will let their spawn run down the halls screaming and play with the room phones and call your room. I travel A LOT. Never in my life have i had my room phone called. This happened every night and morning we stayed. The phone in the room is also ancient so the ringer is loud as hell. Scared us out of sleep the first night it happened. Hotel is also either dusty or musty, both me and my partner have allergies and they were acting up our entire stay. Overall the lodge needs some massive updates to justify the cost of the stay.
