The only reason I am only giving 3 stars overall is because the beds were not comfortable and the wlls were paper thin so we could here the neighbor's tv all night! Otherwise the staff was super friendly and accommodating. The place was clean just outdated. The pool area was nice and the cafe was excellent!

Christmas light weekend
Need new matress. They are horrible. Door didn't shut very well. You can tell that there was a dog or two in that room prior to us. Walls and door tore up from dogs.

It served it's purpose, bed was clean, room was clean, staff were friendly and helpful. Our room, at least, needed a massive overhaul. Most of the outlets had nothing behind them. If you plugged in a charger, it would just fall out. The one functional outlet we found was charred. 😬 It was very cold during our stay. The display was broken on our hvac unit so we couldn't tell the temp. We put the heat on the lowest setting, within 3 minutes it was suffocating. If you turned the heat off, within 3 minutes we were shivering. We didn't utilize any facilities or eat there so can't comment on that. I just think it needs a massive update

The staff was friendly and helpful, and the indoor pool and hot tub were great. However, the maid service was inconsistent, with no daily visits, and no bed making or vacuuming on weekends. Additionally, towels had to be collected from the front desk, although the staff was pleasant about it.

Great place to stay during Holidays
When i first arrived i was greeted very nicely and checked in like normal, everything went just fine until i got to my room and realized i had been given the wrong room. I called and the desk clerk put me into the right room almost immediately.
