This place was really great to stay at. The only thing I would say is I think there needs to be a little better grounds maintenance. Garbages at the outside dining area should be checked more frequently so that it doesn’t overflow. Other than that it was amazing and I’d easily stay again.

Hotel is in bad shape

The hotel was quite run down. The bathroom fan seemed to be broken. Breakfast was way too cluttered and a fuse blew and took out the pancake machine before we could use it. All in all, it was an underwhelming stay.

Property was nice but the fold out couch was absolutely horrendous. I know they aren’t great even when brand new but this mattress was stained and flat and uncomfortable. Even tried sleeping on just the couch. It too was awful. Tried getting the “upgrade” they offered via email but was unavailable all three nights we were there

Don’t stay

Paying the amount of money we spent for the 2 room suite, I feel we should have gotten nicer furniture. Theda were hard- couch in family room was broken, the chairs were peeling and the bathroom was dirty… we were there celebrating our son graduating from Navy bootcamp.
