Liked: Staff & service
Basic hotel and amenities. Check in staff was very friendly and helpful.
The whole hotel needs a makeover. It smelled really musty and gross when we walked into our room. The shower seemed to be newly replaced but not installed correctly. The wall moved when you leaned on it. There were big gaps between the wall and tub where the grout was not fixed/replaced after the install. After several minutes of the bathroom steaming from the shower, my children and I began to sneeze uncontrollably. Not sure if it was because of the musty/possible moldiness or if there was some products used to clean, etc. that were irritating to all of us. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. The whole place just didn’t feel clean.
Positives:
The staff was friendly and the breakfast was good.
We loved this hotel! Our stay was very comfortable and the location was perfect for us. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast buffet was an actual buffet of good quality selections and tasty and hot.
