Meh
Beds were awful. Didn’t give enough towels. Continental breakfast was terrible… it was barely a breakfast. The door for the room had a gap in the side that you could see outside. Good thing was the pool was nice and clean.

It was our second time staying here. It nice and not overpriced. It was remodeled some since last time. The swimming pool is clean and nice. My only problem is the driveway is very dark and the road so it's hard to see where to turn in at night.

So so hotel
The comfort was decent. The sitting area chairs were covered with mildew. The showerhead was rusted and dirty. The toilet paper holder screws were coming out of the wall.
