The door to our room didn’t seal shut we could see the hallway. The tv had black lines in it and was dark and crooked. The toilet didn’t flush right. The noise from the shower and toilet from room above us was so loud when used it woke us up. I would not recommend staying there again. We got room for valentines Anniversary. Will not stay again. The staff were polite and that was the only nice part of our stay.

I love this hotel. We’ve stayed here a time before about a year ago. I completely forgot, but the hot tub burns your eyes. I assumed it was just a one time bad luck, but coming back it did it again. You can only spend 10 min max before your eyes burn. The pool also is not heated. So it sucks because we come for pool and hot tub and neither were able to be used. Other than that, the staff and room was great.

The room was nice for the price. The breakfast was a little limited, but being the slow season, that's understandable. Overall, we were happy with our stay, and the staff was friendly.
