Check in was a bit rough. The lady at the front desk was not real helpful. She handed me my key cards and that was it. I asked for directions. She told me what directions elevators were in. She had also said make sure you get the right elevator. Ok my issue was that she could of said look at room number and elevator numbers. Elevator I needed was like right up front. Frustrated to say the least not knowing where they were actually located. Beside the one person all else very friendly and helpful... Very clean and a nice views out back. Diffently would stay their again.

Property has a patio area with chairs down by the river with wildlife viewing. We saw several breeds of ducks in the river and also lots of geese. We saw a couple of raccoons also. It was a very nice hotel stay with great relaxation and views of the river. Great stay for our children as well! Beds were comfortable and we slept well.

Air filter in AC was filthy. Vent in bathroom was full off dust and dirt. The carpet in our room made our feet black. Spiders in room and all over balcony. When using microwave, the tv was disrupted. The fridge took 5 hours to even get cool. Dirty diapers in hallway garbage for 2 days. 2 staff members at front desk were very rude when checking in, checking out and when we asked for more towels and toilet paper 2 days into our trip. Sink in bathroom was clogged. Stains on sheets of bed. Outside pool was along the highway. Was never told how to get out to pool. Asked to use a cart and staff member replied, they are over there and make sure you bring it back.

It does the job

It was perfect for two nights for the Jeep Invasion. Provided a bed to sleep, just what we needed. Breakfast was slim and could use several more items.
