The staff was so kind and accommodating. We loved the bottom room next to the pool. The keyless entry to the rooms was everything. This property is close to so many shops and restaurants. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. They were strict about the noise level after 10pm, which was so great! We had an excellent stay.

Staff was very friendly. From the pictures I expected a somewhat nicer facility. It is basically a remodeled motel, quite basic, floors are uneven and stairs creak. But it is functional and clean. The heated pool and hot tub were a plus.
