Got off to a rough start with an issue with the room keycard, but the staff worked tirelessly to ensure everything was to my satisfaction.
Went above and beyond and even upgraded my room at no charge.
I did not wake up in time for breakfast but the room was clean and well maintained it was quiet with a nice indoor pool and friendly staff, the bathroom was a bit small but again very clean and had an awesome tub and waterfall type shower head
Great pool and hot tub however the complimentary breakfast is a extra charge that they don't tell you about. Oh yes the room was really warm for some reason.
Nice rooms. The pool was too cold. Our breakfast was not included since we booked with a third party. Easy to walk to a couple nearby restaurants for meals.

I think I've rated this before because I've stayed here a couple of times now. Can't remember what I rated it but I did get to use it more. It's dated but clean and I'm sure I'll stay there again. I used the pool for the first time and it was ok. Pool deck was a bit dirty but it was good to relax. I was there in the winter so it wasn't busy at all.
Spots on bathroom wall that looked questionable. Breakfast was ok. Most items were frozen. (Nuke them) Coffee was very good. Hot tub and pool working, hot tub nice and warm. Side entrance door did not close easily so it did not lock unless you pulled it closed.
The room was clean. The staff were friendly. The pool deck could’ve used a cleaning at least once during our five days stay. There was gum on the floor, leaves as people were walking in pool area with outdoor footwear. Out of the five nights we stayed there were people in the pool at 1 AM four of those nights. I tried to ignore the noise. Should’ve called the front desk. The side entrance door did not secure a lot of the times. You have to pull on the door to make sure that it closed properly. They continental breakfast was adequate. But nothing to write home about.
The room was in fair condition. The hotel is dated and requires cleaning up, new carpets, paint, furniture and a basic scrubbing. When we requested a room refresh after two days the bed wasn’t made up properly nor was the carpet vacuumed so it left the visit wanting. Front of the house staff were excellent on checking in.
Lovely indoor pol with patio and good hot tub. All necessities and more. Great shower, good beds, good value for the money. Right next to Tesla outlets.
