As of a Month ago The New Owners of the Restaurant are no longer allowing the hotel to offer Breakfast included. Like the previous owners did. When I stayed there Three years ago in the Winter many times the Breakfast was amazing. The pool and Hot tub are Wonderful especially on very Hot weather days 🤗

Quick stay
We had a great time, we were in town for a medical appointment so it was a quick visit. The pool looked so amazing but the weater and time we got there we never used it. The room was comfortable, it's dated and has some wear and tear that hasnt been done. It was a clean, comfortable room. The AC was loud but kept the room cool. The staff were friendly. Would stay here again and bring out kids next time to enjoy the pool

Great Pool, Good Beds
I chose this hotel because of the pool, which was amazing.
The hotel is a bit tired, and we were turned away rather unceremoniously when we arrived early, though we were offered access to the pool. Despite that when we returned at 4 our room was ready and our stay was very comfortable. The restaurant in the hotel provided an incredible meal.

Great pool.
The young man who checked us in was very professional and welcomed us. The pool area is really nice with lots of lounge chairs which is so important. Unfortunately our room was not great. The air conditioner was so loud we could hardly talk to each other when it was running there was no way we could sleep with it going so the room got very hot. The bathroom and floors did not look clean but I think that’s mostly due to its age and the materials used. The hotel really needs major upgrades. Sadly I would not stay there again until changes have been made

Tired and Rundown
The website and Hotels.com in-app pictures are not accurate. This is a rundown and tired hotel. The blinds were missing panels; an electrical outlet didn’t have its cover and had live wires accessible to our child, flooring and furniture was very old and rundown, to name just a few things. Also, the “poolside” room was actually an unkempt grassy area outside our balcony, not a pool. Nice pool area, but the pool temperature is only good for someone looking for a cold plunge!
