The hotel is nice enough and the people were very friendly, but the bathrooms could certainly use an update. Breakfast was good, but somehow the heating elements did not do a good job of keeping the food warm. And on the first morning of our stay, the cleaning staff accidentally left out door slightly open such that we pushed the door open when we went to put in our car. I would actually consider staying there again given the price, location and friendly service. But if my wife had been with me, she would probably veto the idea.

Wont stay here again

Staff coming in was friendly, however the night staff was not, we got accused of not being a costumer staying at the hotel. We were told hot breakfast was being served in the morning, which there was not only hot item was waffles we make ourselves. The outside is run down, the inside wasnt in much better shape, we felt like we were at a cheap motel. No locks on the outsides of any of the doors so anyone could walk right in. Our room lock was broken and multiple doors to the rooms were all seemed to have been broken into or tried. The pool is only 3 feet throughout and very cold.

This hotel was spacious. The staff were friendly and helped solve issues (.e.g refrig wasn't turned on when we arrived, but easily fixed through instructions). Beds comfortable. Lovely full breakfast in the morning. The only strange thing was that the hot water knob in the bathtub was on the right with cold on the left. Labels would be nice. We figured it out after a period of thinking we had no hot water.
