The room wasn’t ready, and I didn’t get the room I had reserved. As a result, one of our guests had to sleep on the floor. Additionally, there was water leaking in the hotel, indicating it definitely needs some maintenance.

Best experience in a long time

The lady at the front desk that does the morning shift is AWSOME!!! I think her is Sharon.She was very nice and helpful. Everyone that worked there was nice and helpful. It was nice and quiet and clean. The pool was nice and clean. The water could have been a little warmer but I still enjoyed it. They had a good variety for breakfast and it was pretty good. Will stay again!!
