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 was very nice and the property was very clean. I think the rooms could stand a bit of an upgrade though. But overall it’s a nice hotel.

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.
