Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Overall, our stay was good. Great room, comfortable, and the staff was amazing. The A/C worked great, but it did leak, making it wet around the front of the room by the door and A/C unit. They are working on that in general while doing their renovation on the property. Great property and view though.
no hair dryer, no towels, no soap or shampoo.
place was in shambles , looked like it was shut down which I come to here it is closing, rubble and rocks, bricks everywhere, felt very scary
There was lights where we parked. We felt very safe. The staff was very friendly and courteous!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff was friendly and the location was pretty. The room could've been cleaned much better, especially the floor. The bed and sheets were very clean tho.
The staff was really great, kind, and accommodating. The rooms are incredibly dated and lacking. There was no blow drier, iron, or even a phone in the room. The tub was peeling and the rooms desperately need a makeover.
They are making upgrades with big future plans. It was clean and adequate. No it wasn’t the nicest place i have ever been but it sounds like within the next year, it may be one of the best in the area.
The staff was second to none. So friendly and helpful. We dealt mostly with Marion and she was worth the stay. The place was clean and nice on the inside. Outside…construction. No big deal. The staff was so great I’ll be back again.
The staff was very nice -- the room had everything one would need for an overnight stay. The rooms are dated; however, the sheets were clean. My only issue is the microwave wasn't cleaned -- it looked as if someone spilled a red sauce inside and was dried and caked inside when we arrived.
Staff were excellent. They were pleasant and helpful.
Breakfast was sufficient. Loved the fact that there was whole milk
Pool water was not as clear as I would expect it to be
I believe that there should be bars in the bathtubs for seniors to use getting in and out of the shower.
