After check-in, I checked the bedding and noticed some red stains on the sheets. I had to go down to the office and ask for clean bedding. There was also hair between the sheets and the bed board were peeling. The bathroom wall had what appeared to be makeup on it. After seeing all this, I decided to wipe surfaces down as I felt the room was not cleaned properly upon arrival. The staff were friendly and nice. On our second day the TV stopped working. We are told that Comcast would come and fix it but we spent the rest of our vacation without TV. Again, the staff were nice but I wish the room was cleaner and we had access to all the amenities including the TV.

Disappointing!!! Do NOT believe the pictures on the website. The property is old, tv in the room did not work for a full day, headboards looked disgusting, bathroom had black mold spots on the ceiling in the shower and all around the flooring of the bathtub and door was filthy, moldy, and disgusting! Table lamps in the room flickered non-stop while they were on. The pool was cold and the spa was too hot. NO towels poolside like to photos show, poolside tables & chairs worn and do not look strong enough to hold an adult. Walls inside our room had gashes and something icky stuff to one area. Air conditioner fan was extremely loud when on making it difficult to sleep but you needed it on because the room was so humid. Small patio was overgrown with weeds. DO NOT RECOMMEND this place and the owners should be sited for the lack of upkeep.

The room was nice, clean and they had cute animals made out of washcloths. I wish they had better options for the continental breakfast. There were not enough healthy options and the bananas were way too ripe. My only other complaint is the balcony. Although it is very nice with a picnic table and heater, it is shared with the next room. When I arrived to my room after working all day, and opened my blinds the neighbors where on my side at my table looking right into my room. I think there should be a divider between rooms. Because of this my door could not be left open at night even though I was on the second floor. Other than that, it was a great place, and I would stay there again.

Only a few TV channels, no smart TV. There was a bright light on our balcony that we could still see while sleeping despite closing shutters which made it difficult to sleep. Called front desk and was told there was no switch and nothing they could do. No gym just offer a pass.

Property is outdated, with some minor attempts at upgrading. Found a small bug in our room. Not a roach but the tiny looking ones. The pillows were superrrr flat and Really hard. Sleep was greatly affected by this. Walls are very thin. Also, parking is very limited. Having a truck made it difficult to park. Hotel is on the corner of two busy streets, so it’s a bit noisy. Staff was friendly and accommodating

Did the job.
Lovely big room and comfy beds but only three pillows between 2 people. We used the hot tub but the pool was too cold. Breakfast was perfectly adequate with a. reasonable and plentiful choice. Great to have free parking. Good location a few mins drive from the harbour and over the road from restaurants. Glad we had no one above us as there were some very noisy guests up and down the stairs during the late evening.

Active Infestation
We checked into the room and used the bathroom . There was a rotten hole in the wooden door frame and a cockroach running in the bathroom floor . I went to the front desk with the cockroach and requested a room change . We were “ upgraded” to a townhouse - the down stairs toilet was blocked and we could not use it . We had to turn off the water to the toilet yet when we used the sink the water continued to rise . It was very inconvenient as one guest had to come upstairs and through our bedroom to use the restroom . The entire property smelled like bleach ? Chlorine .The property is not as advertised. We would like a refund as felt horrible staying there - my daughter has a documented allergy to cockroaches.
