There’s nothing worse than having TV issues on vacation. Sent my husband to the office to get help with the TV because we could not access Netflix and they rudely began talking amongst themselves and told my husband it must be a Wi-Fi issue because there are too many people staying there. The phone in the room did not work and the air shut off in the middle of the night. The mattress was not comfortable either, and I woke up every hour. I normally don’t write reviews, but this one needed to be documented. Definitely would not stay here again.

The breakfast on Sunday was very nice I really liked the waffles and strawberries and there coffee machine was nice I liked the variety of options for breakfast. And the breakfast area has windows all around with natural sunlight it’s very nice. Having said all that it’s an old hotel so it’s aged.
