Very disappointed in our stay this time. The front desk staff was not very nice and be prepared if there are multiple weddings and your staying above the entrance, they have ZERO noise control! So people can party all night and no one cares!

Great stay!

I don’t understand the amount of bad reviews I see on other search engines, because I had a great stay! The lobby smelled good, the staff was friendly especially Natasha (SP?) at the front desk. My room and was extremely comfortable and I felt very comfortable being a solo traveler. The pool area is also very nice! I’ll be back 🙂

Room refrigerator legs broken. Several Room electrical outlets powered by hidden power strip. GFCI tripped and lost power to TV, lamps, outlets. Front desk failed to follow up on repairs and power still out upon return to room 12 hours later. Offered 2 free drinks and upon attempting to redeem at bar, found out the beer tap had been broken for 2 weeks.

This hotel isn't worth anywhere near the amount they charge. It's an old hotel very cheaply "updated" with cheap peeling wallpaper and the front of our sink base was literally falling off. The corners of the floor are cracked and delaminating. The staff was ok but the grounds aren't well kept and it's noisy. The beds are also some of the most uncomfortable I've ever slept in. Woke up with a headache and stuffy nose from the room. Definitely not worth it. Left me wanting my money back.

The hotel was nice clean pool, there were some issues like in the bathroom exposed wires, and the food was overpriced to the quality. Lots of places to relax around the hotel inside and out. To far to walk to shopping and food, but was a very quick car ride to lots of food options
