I picked this hotel because of the pool and the continental breakfast because I had children with me. Upon arrival, we were not told at check-in that the pool had been shut down by the Health Dept. We soon found out that it had been shut down 10 days earlier and still was not up and running. Continental breakfast left a lot to be desired, and we had ants in our room and smoke detector was literally hanging off the ceiling by a wire. And on top of all this, the Wi-Fi was down as well.

In general this was a very clean hotel, room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The second day we stayed there the second floor had a very strong sewer smell but didn’t hinder our stay.

Check in was not the best experience. The guy was not a good people person. He acted like having to do his job was a bother. The initial look of the hotel was great. Then we got to our room. The bathroom was missing trim work and had cracked tiles. The floor looked like it had not been cleaned including the carpet. The beds smelled very odd. The beds were comforting though. Breakfast was almost nothing at 8:20am. Was an ok place to stay but needs better cared for.

I liked the Plant and couches on the second floor. I didn't like the Reception area or employees, very unprofessional. I appreciate your free breakfast, but that was horrible too. I didn't like how isolated the hotel was.
