Excellent hotel in Pinecraft area

This is an excellent hotel. Experienced, professional staff are very helpful. Rooms are large, well-appointed and very clean. The hallways between rooms in this hotel are the widest I have ever seen, and decorated with tables, lamps and couches. Common areas such as lobby, convention areas and breakfast areas are large and very nice. This is an Amish hotel that has all the modern conveniences and great hospitality. The hotel shares a parking lot with Der Dutchman, a restaurant owned by the same group as the hotel. The room was great value for the money.

Awful Slow or Broken Down Elevators

I recently stayed at your hotel, and given the high rates and premium pricing, I expected a much better experience than what I received. Unfortunately, I encountered several serious issues that I feel compelled to bring to your attention. 1. Elevator Functionality & Accessibility One of the most basic expectations when staying at any hotel is ease of access to your room. This hotel had only two elevators—one of which was completely out of service during my entire stay. The other elevator appeared to be in poor working condition and was extremely slow. On multiple occasions, I waited up to 8 minutes just to get to or from my room, which is entirely unacceptable. A fully booked hotel with only one barely functioning elevator is a serious inconvenience and should have been addressed immediately, especially considering the premium pricing guests are paying. 2. Breakfast Service & Quality Expectations Another disappointment was the breakfast service. For a hotel of this caliber, I expected breakfast to be served with appropriate tableware. Instead, everything was served on paper plates, which felt cheap and out of place. Even a plastic or ceramic plate would have been more suitable. This reflects poor judgment by management and gives the impression of cost-cutting at the expense of guest experience. 3. In-Room Maintenance Issues I stayed in a suite that included a kitchen,the dishwasher did not work at all. And the kitchen light kept turning off with bad wiring .

Solid good breakfast, you can bring trays to eat in your room. Delicious baked goods and cookies served every evening. Nice spacious rooms, wonderful pool area with pool toys provided. You definitely need transportation to get around (beaches are all at least 15-20 mins away) although a convenient shopping plaza is across the street, about a 5-7 minute walk. One other con is that some of the Amish/Mennonite people staying at the property were not very friendly.
