The hotel needs updating. The bed was very uncomfortable, bedding was rough, drapes were water stained and the water ran rusty in the bathroom for minutes before clearing up. The good, the lady at the front desk was nice and the hotel was clean.

Cleanliness was very good. No fan in the bathroom just a vent. 3 friends shared the room. I had the sofa bed. It was comfy but the extra "blanket" was more like a sheet. Pool was nice but no not tub. Breakfast was excellent & staff very friendly.
