The rooms were nice, my family got randomly upgraded to a suite which was wonderful (highly recommend the suites if you’re traveling with family). The staff was super friendly and responsive. The pool and hot tub leave a bit to be desired-they aren’t well maintained and the hot tub needed a good cleaning. But overall everything was great.

Not our favorite

Of all the places that we stayed, this was the least favorite. There was an odd smell that did not go away with airing out; the furnishings and room were very basic; and the heating and AC controls were very confusing and not well marked. The host was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was good. If someone was simply looking for a utilitarian place to sleep, this will work just fine.
