I liked that the living area is closed off from the sleeping area and has a sofa bed for additional sleeping space. Staff was courteous and friendly, we had a comfortable stay. We had to change rooms as the room we were initially assigned did not have any heat and it was really cold, however the staff promptly addressed our concern and facilitated our request for a room change. Will definitely stay here again when in the area, highly recommended.

Its time for a little TLC

This establishment was average at best. Not meaning to make it sound bad, they could just make some well needed upgrades. The pool was nice...but cold. Nobody wanted to get in. Theres no hot tub (very easy to install). The breakfast was not very tasty, like other hotels have been. Its like they purchased 2 levels down from other hotel chains. The clenliness was nice except my white socks turned pretty black with me walking on my room floor. My sons feet were black within a few minutes also. The bed was pretty comfy but it looked like the place has been painted over about 20 times without redoing the sheetrock and it still has popcorn on their ceilings. Thats been gone for over 20 years in the building practices now. But overall a "decent" place to stay for the money (but I did get a little discount going through hotels . com

Only issue I have with this place is housekeeping. When we checked in there was 2 “housekeeping” staff in pajama pants and sweat shirts. Seems unprofessional to me. Room are not cleaned during your stay, even if you put the card on the door that says “ clean my room”. That’s a first for me.

The double suite was very spacious. The beds and pillows very comfortable. Couch bed was not comfortable and barely had padding on the couch bed. I had a reservation for 5, however towels in the suite was for a set of 2. I needed to ask for more towels.

Thermostat did not work, so no heat when it was 36 degrees outside. The sink didn’t have a faucet or spigot just three empty holes. I would never stay there again.

This is quite an upscale but older hotel. Our room was great and recently remodeled. The bed was very comfortable. The suite had 2 rooms but difficulty getting the heat transferred uniformly to the bedroom and bathroom. We had reserved a handicap room, but we arrived and were told none available. So with my wife using as walker, we navigated to the 2nd floor of the distant building. Entry was only allowed through the front entrance so we had a long way to luggage our luggage. Breakfast could have been good but eggs, sausage and bacon were.brought cold to service area and dumped into heated servers as we arrived at 6:55am. So we loaded our plates and heated them in our room. A good hotel could be great with a little more effort and consideration.

For the area and price it’s a good hotel

This hotel does have potential to be a great place but there is no food on site or bar thry have a place for it but empty. The pool area and game area are nice pool not heated so only good in summer and thry had a great sitting area outside with heaters but they never turned them on with it being mainly outdoor space for people to get out of there rooms they should entertain making it comfy and inviting. The landscape is beautiful and tropical the rooms are older but remodeled the cleanliness of rooms is just ok walking in mirrors were dirty, dust on walls and beds. Beds are small but not bad. Hope you get quite people next to you we were not so lucky all night music and yelling.

I liked how each suite had a sitting room inbetween the "oasis" central area and the bedrooms - I bet it cut down on a lot of extra noise. The central oasis was a lot of fun and kept the kids contained and happy. The staff went out of their way to help us with our requests. The only negative thing I can think of was the sausage at the continental breakfast was served ice cold. But there were other things to eat.
