Breakfast was fabulous! Staff very nice and helpful. Only complaint was there was no towels out by the pools. We didn’t know this. You have to get them at the front desk, so was a little hard when we were all wet already. Other than that, very nice stay!

The room was spotless and the staff is outstanding. I am a frequent guest of this hotel, twice a week because of the kindness of the staff. They are pleasant and give good spirits when I approach the front desk.

The room was small but clean and comfortable. The hotel is in need of updates. Rusty doors, broken locks, carpeting and electric plugs that do not hold plugs. The grounds are in need of serious attention plants are all dead. And customers should be told in advance that there are no coffee makers in room and that the kids zipline/ rock climbing area is closed. Also a huge disappointment was the Dunkin that is now a Starbucks. Location is good and the price couldn't be beat.

The amenities at this property are fun, pools were great, fun putt putt, they had a movie by the pool. The room itself had an old dirty carpet smell, the paint was peeling off the walls, my husband ran into a massive cockroach in the hallway (I live in Florida... I know they live here too..) The hotel itself could use some updating.

The building is starting to feel a bit dated and could use some improvements. The breakfast was not great, and considering the $34 fee charged per night, it would have been nice to see more variety and better options. That said, the staff were great—very friendly and helpful throughout the stay. The location is also very convenient, which made getting around easy.

The hotel was decent, the second night I was kept awake by young adult being loud and running around. Called front desk and they took care of the matter. Breakfast was ok. Overall was a ok place to rest up on a short trip, bed was comfy. .
