Great stay
We had a king suite with a pullout for our daughter. Lots of space and very clean. Beds were fine. Bathroom was nice. No food at hotel.

Closed restaurant.
The hotel restaurant/bar is "closed until further notice," which is fine, but the hotel should update their listing on this site to make sure it accurately reflects the conditions. That availability did factor into our decision of where to stay, so this was disappointing.

Ok
Hotel seemed a little run down. Our key cards did not work and we had to keep going to the front desk to get new ones.

Okay but not worth the price
The bathroom was not clean. Breakfast and the restaurant were not available. The room was decent. But it was very very overpriced for what was available. Had I known the breakfast and restaurant wasn't going to be available I would not have stayed here.

The staff were very polite, helpful and courteous. My wife and I would like to give particular credit to the front desk attendant Kelly. She went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated for all of our requests.

Overall it was an okay property. The rooms were older and more run down than the images would have you believe. The pool was cool which was disappointing as it was the reason we chose this property to take our young son swimming.

One of the things we look for when booking is if the hotel has a bar/lounge. We do that so when we are far from home and want to have a few drinks, we don't have to worry about transportation. This hotel shows a bar/lounge as one of the amenities and even has a photo of it on their website. The bar/lounge is closed and has been for quite some time. Had I known this ahead of time, I would have booked elsewhere. This is clearly false advertising and it's misleading. The room was "OK", the sheets for the sofabed had stains on them and the bathroom fan didn't work. They advertise breakfast, but it was $12 for scrambled eggs, hashbrowns and a slice of bacon.
Definitely will not book with this location ever again.
