Very Good

You get what you pay for. It was cheap so I can't complain to much, as it was only $112 a night. However, the beds are very hard and after the second night, our backs will killing us. The room also had a musty mildow smell, thank goodness for the balcony door which keep that open helped tremendously! The whirlpool is is huge and awesome! Great shower as well!

Bed was not comfy at all, very firm and hard. Exhaust fan didn’t work in the bathroom. Fireplace did not hard work, little blue flame. Pillows were not comfy, thin and did nothing, no blankets on the bed, just at a sheet and thin comforter.
Clean and tidy. Very cozy and romantic. Just a bit stuffy with a strong moldy smell at the beginning from lack of airing it out hours prior but eventually your nostrils get used to it or the fan finally circulates the air around.
Besides that minor detail, I LOVED IT!!

The room was clean. Decor is dated. Patio area for room needed cleaning. Indoor pool area was semi clean. Outdoor patio and pool needed cleaning. Looked unkept.
Hotel was run down, room was clean but pool was full of leaves building run down. Vending machines empty. The breakfast was decent. Asked for a room facing the parking lot, that didn’t happen, asked if there was a shuttle to town was told yes but when we got there , there was no shuttle. Only on weekends. Had to ask for the room to be cleaned. Not worth 100.00 a night!

Someone needed to empty the garbage in the dining room. Air conditioner was not keeping the room cool. It was ok but had it on the lowest temp.
