Room was clean and nice. Pillows were awful. We had to use the bed comforter as a pillow. All the employees were super nice. Many were in training as it is the beginning of the tourist season. The outside area around the Main Dining Room, fencing, path ways were in need of repair.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Recommend against this hotel. Worst I’ve ever stayed in. A tent in the Park would be an even alternative if not superior. Keys didn’t work, room furnishings missing, water from sink and shower faucets brown leaving sediment, ice machines missing or broken, food options on property poor at best. Efforts to escalate found absence of manager and supervisor offered slow and minimal response. Appears that business cares very little of customer experience when they’ve a captive clientele due to location.
