Staff were good the place over all just wasn’t what i thought it would be
I really like this place. Its a great location. 2nd time I’ve stayed here. The wifi has gone out every time I've visited. Wish it was a little more up to date and had better room features.
Wife speaking- I went solo for one night and it was ok but I would not stay there again in the future. The quiet pool was nice for a swim and to read poolside. The party pool is nice if you are a yound 20 something year old and there to party. I did like there was separation.
The rooms are older and they took minimalism literally when redecorating. Something just felt off. There were stay hairs in my bath tub and it looked grungy so I did not shower.
This is not hotels fault but someone apparently left their toddler alone and around 9pm I had police banging on my door as they were looking for thr parents. Staying alone, this was very unsettling. I ended up not sleeping very well. Disappointing because the pillows and bed were actually very comfy.
Overall I just feel like ive had a better experience at other hotels and would not recommend this one personally.
Also, may be location of my room in particular but I heard every emergency siren that drove by. Very noisy.
Great location and very convenient to walk around town. Nice pool, comfortable bed and spacious room. The shower temperature was very cold until we finally found the right spot to put the handle to get hot water, and it was in the cold spot lol
The hotel was okay, its was not well cared for, the towels were stained, the bathroom door was missing parts and did not stay closed. The area around offered lots of food options and shopping. The pool area was nice and the gym looked well kept.
