Outdated. For the price point, the room should be in better shape. Realize for $116 a room & with tax/fees for 2 rooms was $298 in a vacation town, it was run down. Bed was uncomfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff, specifically front desk was absolutely clueless to our checking in. Two other guests were also attempting to check in as well. None of us could get checked in until another staff member showed up who had a better communication skill in speaking English. Checkin process took 45 minutes and then when we entered the room it was 56 degrees with the windows frosted over and mold in the bathroom. The single cleaning woman was being verbally abused by the other two desk staff. The cleaning woman was obviously scared and we noticed that she lived in one of the rooms with her small child. This cleaning woman attempted to help securing another room for us which was equally not up to normal hotel standards. This hotel was such a disaster that we immediately proceeded to our car, disregarding the $220 room rental, and left town never returning. We agreed that returning to this hotel for the night would only cause additional stress. We use Expedia often, staying in a number of properties with equal expectations and this property forced us to leave without staying which is something we have never done.

We checked in at approximately 11:00pm - we were the only ones checking in and it took way longer than it should have. The "free" continental breakfast is a disgrace, they should NOT be able to advertise that as part of the property listing - NO coffee available, the machine was broke!?! NO other beverages available. They only has english muffins, bread or bagels - NO butter, only a few packets of jelly...VERY DISAPPOINTING! The Hot Tub was broke...Grrrr! The bar of soap was maybe 1"X 2", you could barely hold it in your had to scrub yourself, we had to go to the store and buy a real bar of soap to use! No maid service if you stay under 4 days, but NO place to hang our wet towles - we had to drape them over our chair and clothes rack.

It wasn't bad of a place, but yeah, their continental breakfast is you're better off buying breakfast and uh, the coffee is always on back order. The room was pretty nice. Other than they didn't clean the bathroom very well. I found woman's hair in the bathtub when I went to go take a shower. And I don't have any hair but if you're in a pinch, it's not bad.

Not worth it

The sink was clogged and backed up. The toilet barely flushed. They give you 1 tiny bar of soap for 2 people. The continental breakfast was nothing we'd eat. Overpriced for what the room was, it's double the price that we've paid for similar. It was the only room available in the area for that night. We were up for an event.

Do not go there!

I was supposed to get the apartment type room but it was not available. Did not get a email or phone call. Had to stay in a standard 2 queen room because i had a king size bed jacuzzi room is not big enough for 4 people. Still had to pay the amount agreed upon for the apartment suite and the continental breakfast was only bread and water so i will not be choosing this again.
