The mattress in my room needed replacement as it was worn and inclined. Also, if a guest doesn’t have a car, there are no restaurants or stores to walk to nearby. And no food or beverages available at the hotel.

Two things that did not work out. We booked an accessible room. While the bathroom was great, the bedroom did not have turning space for a wheelchair. Second thing - half an hour before breakfast service ended, there were no eggs or ham left and nothing was replenished

I had a very disappointing experience at this hotel due to the unprofessional and rude behavior of the staff. We left a small bag containing valuable souvenirs at the hotel. When my husband called to inquire about it, the staff confirmed that the bag was in their possession and that they would keep it safe. However, when I called later, they denied having the bag and claimed they dispose of all lost items after a month. Additionally, they cut off the call on me. This inconsistency and lack of honesty are unacceptable. The staff's treatment was far from courteous or respectful. I would not recommend this hotel due to their poor handling of lost items and the unprofessional conduct of their employees.

It was overpriced staff 3 separate front desk personal during stay. Night person not so friendly day People better. Clean, comfortable bed but absolutely average stay. Continental breakfast ok could use improvement. Coffee machine 5 stars after you figure out how to use. Was there directions on how to use? If not should be posted near machine. Room for improvement on most levels

Very clean rooms, nice sized fridge even in a 2 queen. Breakfast was lacking and usually slow service as you couldnt serve yourself. Some items would be gone by 8am. Room was available before normal check in and staff were helpful and polite. Pool was heated and not overly chlorinated.
