Staff is friendly and very helpful. It is an older property but the room was clean and comfortable. We had everything we could have needed here when visiting family, including a mini fridge, microwave and place to sit and eat. The pool was great, clean and refreshing. A lot of parks and activities nearby. The restaurants close by and in town were delicious and convenient to get to. Lots of great options! Will definitely stay our next time in town.
