First let me say Booking and check in was a breeze! Upon booking it allows you to make special requests and mine was for rose petals on the bed and a bottle of wine on ice as we went for our 10 year anniversary. I was so excited when I open the door and found rose petals with battery operated candles on the bed, no wine but I understand. Our room was just right for us. It was small but the bed and bedding were so comfy! I recommend a room towards the back of the hotel though as in the front you hear a lot more, like motorcycles or loud trucks driving by. We really only needed a room for sleep and showers since we had a lot planned! I would definitely stay again!

The grounds around the property were nice. The room was in need of work. Room smelled musty. Felt damp. Bed was on a metal box frame and would make a metal echo sound when you hit it with your toe or if you went onto the bed a little heavily. Price was good.

For the price you pay it is what you get. Yes, its an older motel but the location was worth it. Especially since it is part of the hop on hop of trolley route so you can just park and use that for your stay. There was an attendant there 24 hours. I can see how it can get a little loud during busy season but we went when it had died down. I was amazed that the pool hours were until 9pm and when we arrived people were still in the pool at 930pm and the attendant was fine with it. Breaking turned out better than the reviews. There was the usually instant oatmeal with sides, eggs, sausages, bisuits with gravy, cereal and apples and bananas. Juice, coffee and cappuccino was also available.

Staff very pleasant

Staff were quite friendly and offered good customer service; Food taste was good; was disappointed that on the second morning meat was added to the eggs; would have been nice to have a meatless option for eggs each day; shower had extremely low water pressure; the shower curtain was too short so water spilled onto the bathroom floor if dis not turn shower head to the wall; not all towels were clean; had to kill a roach in the room as well as what looked like termites. Overall I would not reserve room at this hotel again.

I arrived at this hotel a bit prejudiced because of some negative reviews, likely written by people who either didn’t want to pay for what they were getting or simply couldn’t appreciate the place. I have to admit I was wrong — and I apologize for my initial impression. The staff was absolutely wonderful: kind, helpful, and genuinely courteous. The rooms may be a little dated, but they were spotless. I was even given extra towels without having to ask twice. As for the breakfast, anyone claiming it wasn’t good must have had other issues, because it was excellent — fresh and well-organized, with eggs, sausages, yogurt, fresh bread, and more. The location is also perfect: the old town is only about a 15-minute walk away, and the pool was clean and well-maintained. This isn’t a 5-star luxury hotel, but I would happily return for the kindness of the staff, the welcoming atmosphere, and the overall value. Thank you!
