Good hotel on a budget!

Service and staff were all very very nice! The room was pretty clean a few lil stains on the walls nothing horrible tho. Bed was okay at best. The biggest complaint was not enough pillows. Room only came with 2 pillows, went to the front desk 3 times asking for pillows and only got 1 the last time I went and the parking lot a lil weird if you drive a full size truck like I do.

Our room smelled like mildew it had to be changed into one the bleached to remove the smell, and it gave me a terrible headache. The pictures on the website are very deceiving. The property does not look like that.

Staff was friendly! Most importantly the cleaning crew did an excellent job! Stayed 1 night and returned the next night also!! Only suggestion would be that they partner with a nearby restaurant to give a discount on breakfast as this resort does not serve breakfast!😪 Was an enjoyable stay 😁
