Pool was out of order and building was under construction im guessing due to the multiple holes in the property, but they all looked cut out like they were in progress of an upgade perhaps? Other than that, pretty basic continental breakfast and very helpful staff.

The whole reason I chose this place was because of the pool and my kids and us staying there for a week. It was down. However, for maintenance the shower was terrible, there was hot water when you wanted cold cold water. When you wanted hot, it would randomly change, scald you 1 minute be freezing, the next, we couldn't get clean towels without attitude. From the front desk person housekeeping never once knocked and asked if we wanted our room cleaned, we were there for a week. So, it would have been nice to have the floor vacuumed and fresh sheets. We ended up washing our own towels and sheets, so we did not have to interact with the staff. Breakfast was sad. The only hot food offered was a toast or a bagel.\n Yogurt gallons of milk in the fridge and cereal. Not pleased. I will not be saying here again.

The location and comfort was fine. However, the place needed a clean-up in general. Mold in a few places, pool down for remodeling and we weren't informed. Breakfast was ok, plus an interior garden to walk and enjoy.

The room was great and the bed was very comfortable. The website said breakfast was included however they had cancelled the breakfast service after we had registered. We were informed in the morning as we tried to enter breakfast room. The person at the front desk informed us and other guests with as much patience as she could. Bad management as they were not there to handle the situation.

Decent for price

Check in was slow- but that’s because there was a new person training. Hallways were very humid. Walked into the room and looked really nice. Room was cool temp. Only complaint was that the shower walls were obviously not wiped down recently.
