Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms were stuffy and outdated, the hot tub was located outside and the water was scalding hot and oversaturated with bleach. The front desk was understaffed- I had to wait for over an hour to check in. There were several unclean areas of the hotel and the breakfast was terrible. There were also several questionable individuals in the parking lot.

We stay every Thanksgiving at this Hotel. The surprise this time was a walk in shower instead of the tub. That is wonderful for us as we get older. We stayed at a Fairfield Inn for several days in Jacksonville, Fl also in November. They had a different menu each day which was really nice for a long stay. Different meat, variety of fruit, omelets instead of scrambled eggs etc.
