Prior to arrival, I saw mixed reviews on several sites. I almost changed my reservation and am very glad I did not.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. The area is safe.
The hotel is dog friendly and was a good experience for all of us. The breakfast was good with make your own waffles, peanut butter, hard boiled eggs and scrambled eggs (later in the week). Fresh coffee and hot water is available 24/7.
The pool and gym were very nice and well used. The main pool was not too cold and the hot tub was not too hot.
The hotel has the added feature of a bar, which is opened Wednesday thru Saturday during the off season. The free drink tickets were an added bonus!
The hotel and room were clean. Overall, aspects of the hotel and rooms were dated and could benefit from continued renovations. This includes some improvements to the outside landscaping.
Overall, the experience and value cannot be beat. I highly recommend staying there.
