I was bummed that the pool was not open. I appreciate that the facilities were being updated, but the aesthetic of the rooms was whitewashed, with evident shortcuts taken for finishes and handiwork.

I would have given excellent across the board, but they are undergoing renovations and should state that on their listing.

The bed was amazing. The room was super clean. The staff was very nice. The only thing i would change us that the water is like warm. I was looking forward to taking a hot bath. But really, it was very nice!!!

Comfy bed, warm bed cover, pillows nor too thick, great window blackout drapes. With windows closed very quiet. Wood floor clean and all looked freshly renovated. Only setback the strong cleaning agent smell, which is unhealthy.

Overall it was a good stay. The beds were comfortable to sleep in. The water pressure of the shower could be better. The sink was big enough for three people; however, the passageway is so narrow. The bed and the sink is too close together.

Unsightly entrance but nice rooms & welcoming
When we first arrived, the place looked a bit uninviting because there were fences up near the entrance & tape across the entrance so hard to find way in. But the receptionist explained that a truck had hit their canopy causing subsidence. He was extremely helpful & welcoming. Our room was clean & had everything we needed.
