The hotel is under construction. The main entrance, restaurant was closed. They did not say this at the time of booking and for the amount of money we paid we thought that it was a bit ridiculous.

The Inn is in the middle of a renovation. We stayed in one of the rooms that had renovations completed. The new room theme was nice. The kids loved the arcade and the pool area as well. Will be back for sure!

Have stayed here many times and this time hit different. The on site restaurant and bar was closed indefinitely but was not updated on the website or Expedia. This was the same for the gym and sauna! We come here specifically for the themed pool and water slide but this time the water was very cloudy and just looked dirty then there were no pool towels! We had brought friends down to introduce what we always found to be a wonderful experience and we're left apologizing.

The indoor pool water was cold and there were no clean pool towels available. Seemed like the hotel and restaurant were short staffed during school vacation week.

Disliked: Amenities
This was our first time staying at the John Carver inn and it was very disappointing for the rate we expected a better experience. The room was okay but there was hair in the tub. And they only option for coffee was the coffee maker in the room and it was filthy. The pool area with sauna we're closed down for renovations but the hot tub was open. We enjoyed it until we got back to the room and noticed our bodies were covered in rashes.
