Though it was an extremely busy football weekend, the staff were so very friendly and focused on each visitor. I felt very welcomed. The building is older, so I was not expecting a lot of renovations, but did not find such. Though the rooms and property were very clean and well maintained, there was a lot that could have been included. The bathroom had molded door frames. The tub had a slow drain. There was broken patio furniture poolside. I give this a 3.9 out of 5, and will be staying again. Thank you,
