Horrible place…

Service nonexistent. No help at the desk, just a phone number. Unkempt grounds. Only two towels, no hairdryer, no spare toilet paper, unusable soap dispensers, dirty sheets, no mattress pads, flat dirty pillows… no room service or fresh towels available 2nd day. Conversation totally clear from room next to us. Tiki bar was ant infested and food there was questionable. Paid over $600 for 2nights… expected resort type service. Heard from people living nearby that the place is possibly in forclosure or bankruptcy. Totally upset with this being on Hotels.com offering. Would like a refund.

I would NEVER stay here again. Parking is very inconvenient. Breakfast is nonexistent. However the worst part about this property is that there is NO hotel staff on premises after hours. There is a clerk who lives nearby but no one is actually at the hotel at night. On Sunday of our stay, the fire alarm went off at 8:30am. I exited the property and headed to the office. I found no one there - just a sign saying she had stepped away with a phone number. I called the number for Amber and I obviously woke her up. She mumbled that she would be there soon. Not knowing what else to do I called 911 to report the alarm. Many guests were now outside wandering around confused. The fire department arrived and began checking out the property. Amber arrived about 10 minutes after the fire department in bare feet with no urgency. She told me it was a false alarm. After the fire department left we packed up and went to check out only to find that the office was locked and Amber apparently went back home again leaving the property unattended. What if this had been a true emergency/fire?? The neglect for safety is unacceptable! How can a resort leave the property's guests unattended?? Why did their fire alarm not alert the fire department?? Unbelievable

Comfortable king size bed room, with a kitchen sink, refrigerator, not sure if it had a microwave didn't check. Shower had a wand on a hose good water pressure. I would like more wall hooks and shelves I never use the dressers to put my clothes in. Strange accommodations for parking I would call ahead about that.

TERRIBLE - DO NOT STAY HERE

The worst hotel experience my boyfriend and I have ever had in our lives. Paper thin walls separated us from our loud neighbors that kept us up until 5am. The shower heads had suspicious mold-like residue. If this wasn’t bad enough we woke up to ants in our bed!!! I thought I felt something crawling on me last night and that confirmed my suspicions. I am trying to contact management to give feedback and only receive voicemail. Very unprofessional.

So I went through and read all the reviews and was beginig to think I made a mistake booking here. Honestly this place is not that bad! Our room was super cute, and it may have been the off season so it was a ghost town, but that's one of the reasons I liked it! Quiet and no drunk adults or screaming kids. Was it a little pricey being off season and none of the restaurants or bars were open.... yes. But overall the location was beautiful and it's in a cute littke town. Not sure how it is in summer, but I enjoyed some peace and quiet in the fall!

Location is great. Rooms could use some updating, but were pretty clean. Had to make multiple calls to get clean towels as three were not enough for two people and six nights.

The property is cute and quaint. It has comfortable beds. My only complaint is the walls are paper thin. We could clearly hear any talking in the hallway and in the room next to us. Other than that it’s a great place. Lots of restaurants to choose from.
