There were a few mechanical things that need to be done in the rooms…toilet didn’t flush (they fixed it), water hot and cold reversed, lights not working etc but overall the stay was comfortable. Wish there was a breakfast served but they no longer do that

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.

This is an old property. Breakfast was a joke $2-$14. Many cracked tiles in bathroom floor. Light beside bed didnt work and it wasn't the bulb. Sink right at the door and anything with a cord would get caught in the room door. Sheers were dirty. Carpet was dirty
