The hotel has a welcoming feeling to it. The front desk staff was super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good with a lot of choices. The pool was nice and clean, unfortunately neither the hot tub or sauna were working. The beds and pillows were very comfortable too!

Staff were helpful/polite and the Breakfast was good, but there were mold spores above the shower and a bar of soap from the previous resident (with a pube on it) was still in the shower suggesting bathroom was not cleaned properly between visits. If the decor was updated and it was properly cleaned it would be a decent hotel. Place needs to be renovated.
