Being so close to everything downtown is an absolute bonus!! Unfortunately the majority of downtown shops seemed to have all closed before 8pm on a weekday during the Summer. The staff were helpful and polite. The main areas of the property were updated. Unfortunately, the air conditioning does not work in the hallways, or was not working during our entire stay. The room itself was not updated and my reason for not an excellent review. When booking, it said updated suites and showed pictures of nice updated units. Sadly, our unit had not been updated with the exception of vinyl plank flooring. The single couch in the unit only had support due to the pull out portion. The single matching chair in the family room, had little to no support. When you sat in it, your hips were below your knees. I would stay at the resort again but I would not stay in Unit 403 again.

The hotel checked us in early. We got our parking pass and pool access before our room was ready. Our room was redone recently and even had tags still on the furniture. They should have updated the tubs and appliances. Everyone was pretty friendly.

This is an older hotel so a little outdated, restaurants all closed at 8pm super early not much open after that. The layout is interesting it’s a studio style setting. The Jacuzzi could have been hotter 100’-104’degrees and there were mosquitoes flying around which made me get right out. There was also a moth in my bathroom that was flying all over the place.
