The hotel provides what it needs to, a decent bed and room. However the pool was colder than it should’ve been and the hot tub was broken (which it was last year). Most staff was friendly, but some seemed bothered by questions we had during “breakfast”.

The bed was extremely comfortable. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Check in was a breeze. This was a spur of the moment trip, but we were still able to book for 4 nights. We had no trouble sleeping as far as noise goes. The only time we heard other people is if we were walking down the hall. The air conditioner works great! We did not get hot at all and we are both hot sleepers. We will definitely stay here again!

Pool was icy cold. Very dissappointing. Bathroom was clean and shower/tub was clean. The room was just old and looked like it needed replacing of furniture. Bed was fine. Sheets were clean. Wall heating/ cooling unit was smelly and curtains looked extra dirty from the air. Overall not horrible but not the best.
