Good for solo travelers. Honestly would not feel safe with kids or if you’re traveling alone as a female. Staff did not want to be there - that’s kind of the vibe I got. Place was worth staying for the breakfast and cook was friendly with good energy.

Room was clean and cool air worked well. Ground areas need some work to make it more appealing. The dryer vent on the outside of the building is in need of serious cleaning before there is a fire. I'm glad I was able to bring in my small dog. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast could have been bigger but the one guy was doing his best. He could use a helper.

When I booked this room I got it because it was pet friendly and I have a service animal with me but when I went to tell the receptionist, I was still charged a fee when online reflected that it would be waived. Room itself was organized but the bathroom and walls were filthy. They really overlook cleaning the main areas.

We got a suite and it was nice. The breakfast was good but not as good as years ago, with no omelets or hash browns any more . But it's free so I can't complain too much. Pool area is still beautiful but I miss the hot tub. I like that it's walking distance to Whiskey Creek, one of my favorite restaurants. I've been going there for 45 years, through different ownerships and still enjoy it.

This is my last stay at this property. Replacing the make-to-order breakfast with a sub-standard continental offering made the choice easy. Our room had issues as well: door wouldn't close without shoving it past the interference in the jamb and the the TV defaulted to the wrong input each time it was shut off. The shower nozzle is at about 5' tall in this room (127) so that was also not ideal. I used a nice treadmill but there is no TV in that room (bracket still on the wall) The key wouldn't work on entrance C which was closest to our room, but we discovered we could get in D so we made that work.

Sadly the grounds and entry ways at this hotel are in poor disrepair. The common areas were extremely warm and the free breakfast was almost non existent with two pieces of fruit and some bread items. The clerk demanded my ticket before I had even decided whether to eat or not. I choose not, it was dark and hot in the breakfast area. I was disappointed in the pealing paint in the shower, and broken light shade. The worst part though was the overwhelming smell of mold, I think the roof had leaked and it had not been properly remediated. I would not recommend this hotel to asthmatics like my spouse or people with allergies
