Rooms and property were dated. Hasn’t seemed to have been updated in 20 years. Beds were comfortable. Worse complaint is that the AC had a hard time cooling down the room even though it got down to low 60s at night. System ran non stop the entire night. Quite loud as well.

Although I had mentioned several months ahead of our arrival that it was our 50th anniversary trip, they gave us an old room next to the BAR!! The room is small, really worn and it smelled when we arrived. So many things missing and it is noisy. How could the reviews have been so wrong. Really unhappy and I will be submitting a bad review to everywhere.
