Property is in the process of being updated. We have stayed here before. Problem is the new updates includes beds that are so high we had trouble getting in bed. They were above my waist. It became a topic of discussion at breakfast with other guests as to how we got into the beds. The girl that works at 8pm told us that she could not get us towel, pillows or clean pillowcases as she was not allowed in the linen closet and did not have a key. She told us to come back at 11pm. We dont stay up until 11pm. WTH

Great stay

Great stay but there was a strange humidity in the room, making the floor extremely slipping upon entering and I almost busted my butt twice. Even the carpet felt wet. Other than that, clean and great view.

Room was clean , but the bed squeaked . The water pressure in the toilet was very low . We had to continually flush twice almost every time just to make sure the toilet paper would go down . The staff was very pleasant and the free breakfast was also very good. Nice selection of options.

It was ok and a basic motel. That area has a lot of places like this. The room had no closet, which I havent seen before. The room was clean, the staff was friendly. We didn't have the breakfast, but it wasn't what we wanted. The pool was closed but it is still early for that now.
