Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was fine, but i noticed what appeared to be dried blood spots on the chair and stool.... after that i was skeptical of cleanliness. Thankfully my stay was short. I was sad to see the pool didnt have a hot tub. Otherwise staff was nice enough and lobby area is very clean.

I had a great stay and appreciated the helpful and friendly staff very much! The decor inside the hotel and by the water is lovely and very well maintained. Although I didn’t have a chance to try breakfast, they had a good variety of options and the prices were very reasonable. I would certainly stay here again!
