"Not what I expected. Run down resort that needs a lot of upgrades. Tony Roma's the restaurant was good. The staff was friendly and helpful, but pretty much everything else needs attention."
"Tyler at the front desk was very friendly and helpful, we really liked him a lot. The restaurant Wilder was really more of a bar with a small pub menu, so was a little disappointing, only because we were anticipating a full restaurant."
"I loved the pool, It was 8-9 feet. Which is very fun to swim in. The rooms were spacious and everything was neat and comfortable. We didn't really talk with staff but they seemed nice as we were checking-in."
