The rooms here are nothing special, but the pool and grounds around it are beautiful! It’s nice having dining choices on site as well. This is our second stay here and ironically both times the shower gel and shampoo were empty. They were never filled during our weeklong visit. Thankfully we bring our own.

The Perfect Little Place!

So happy I found this place! Such a great vibe! Rooms are lovely, well kept and spacious. Plenty of hot water and a mini fridge in room as well. Staff is friendly and helpful. There is a restaurant and bar on site and their food, drinks and service are excellent. Pool and hot tub, mellow lighting and calm at night. Felt very comfortable here. Conveniently located as I was going back and forth to the Convention Center. Parking is easy and convenient and the rate is affordable. I can't wait to stay here again!

The property is in major need of renovations. The furniture and beds are old and outdated and not comfortable. The bathtub would not drain and we had four people in the room. We called maintenance numerous times to come fix the bathtub drain or move us to a different room. The manager was unresponsive.

Its been a long time since i stayed at a motel in such poor condition. Yes, a motel, NOT A RESORT. This place would need a lot of work to rise to the level of a Motel 6 or Days Inn. TV and phone didnt work,nothing was done about it, carpets filthy and stained, wall sockets open/broken and unsafe, the whole place generally run down. Plumbing extremely weak. I will say the staff was very nice, but evidently have no power to correct anything. I wasted my money on this place, did NOT get value for what i paid. Please do not give them yours.

Worst Checkin Ever

Checking in was a horrible. Gal w red glasses was rude, unfriendly, everything you would not want when checking in to a hotel. Felt like turning around and going someplace else. Having been visiting this hotel for 20 years, probably will never return.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was not clean. There was a rust stain on the carpet, one of the pillow cases was dirty. The door was drafty and difficult to latch. Staff was unavailable. Three times I tried accessing the office for assistance and each time the door was locked and a sign was up. The third time a staff member was inside the office and ignored my knocking. Really un-kept-up-with, aggravating place to stay. Avoid it.
