Another great visit

It's always a great place to stay at, we come up every year for a SXS trip. Rooms have always been clean and comfortable. We don't usually have breakfast in the hotel side but walk over to the bar/restaurant attached.

Big room, however, never updated and no USB ports or any modern conveniences. Continental breakfast was typical continental breakfast, but was as expected. Darcy was very loud till closing time. The rooms are like a maze to try to find and get to the lobby or the breakfast area. However, not a lot of other options in the area.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The area around the hotel looked safe. They needed grab bars in showers. The tub was slippery with nothing to hold on to. The room looked clean, but one bed was wet and smelled, and could or would not be used. The bathroom also smelled of urine.

Nice big room. I liked that it had the bar/restaurant attached, but it had such bad air quality that we decided to drink our drinks outside, which was nice, but didn’t eat there because of the air quality. They had bags outside too which was nice.
