Everything was good at this property. The pool area was fun and clean. The breakfast was simple but had many options. And the rooms were clean and spacious and the beds were comfortable.

Overall a great stay, have been here yearly for the past 4 years. The room updates are very nice, hotel in general is clean, as is the pool area. Only complaint is that the beds seriously need to be replaced- very hard and uncomfortable, and make a lot of noise. The bathrooms could use a little updating as well.

Eric, Thank you for the review. We are happy to hear you are a returning guests for the last few years. We have been doing a lot of work to each room and hope to update the bathrooms soon!

Bad beds
Hotel could be a 10! But beds are horrible! We have stayed twice in different rooms along with family members in other rooms and same census. The beds are trash! Can literally fill the springs! They make crunch noise when ya move. Beds need replaced before anything else! So to make this place awesome! Pool area is FANTASTIC! 1. New COMFORTABLE beds 2. Shower heads with wands like they have in pool restroom. 3. Breakfast could use a little revamp.

Roy, Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback on your recent stays. We are truly sorry that you find our beds uncomfortable. Comfort is our top priority, and we apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. I will pass this census along to management to address the issue of the beds. WE are happy to hear that your family enjoyed the pool. We hope when you stay with us again we can make it a 10/10 for you!

The photos displayed on the website show a much different look. The mattress is like sleeping on an air mattress as it was very low to the floor. The bathroom was missing Kleenex and the shower gel was empty. The bathroom floor and walls could use some cleaning. We didn't even stay our 2nd night because of the bed but still had to pay for it. Won't stay again.

Kim, We have just finished an update in the rooms and we are waiting for the photographer to send us the updated pictures. I apologize that your stay was not what you were expecting, the front desk staff is normally very prompt to our guests if they need anything in their rooms. Hope you will give us another try in the future.

Super friendly staff and great location. The only thing was the hot tub was not working and after my training I really was looking forward to using it. Otherwise the hotel is very clean, friendly and helpful staff and the sauna was lovely. Having a market right next door was also nice.

The front desk clerk didn’t know how to pull in the Expedia reservation even though she could see it. Interest she just charged me again giving the excuse it was for incidentals (even though the amount was more than the total Expedia charge). I spoke with the manager this morning when and she claims she fixed it but now we still have the full charge pending on our credit card in addition to the Expedia charge. Grrrr. Breakfast is basically non existent. Don’t even bother thinking you will eat here. The room was nice but for the charged, we at least expected breakfast other than boxed cereal and bagels

Kellie, We apologize for the inconvenience. We could not help that our system was down and all/any reservations made online did not integrate into our system. Once we close the credit card batch tonight, expect to see that pending charge drop in a few days. We hope that in the future you can stay with us again.
