Location was beautiful. All staff were friendly. Room, bed, and bathroom were all very clean. The lights on the bed did whatever they wanted and started flashing a few times through the night. There was not weather strip around the door so you could see outside with the door closed. Dumpster pick up started around 5 am and continued for about 3 hours. The room next door was getting a new furnace that started around 7 am. Not a very relaxing first morning for vacation.

No one likes a bad review that’s why I didn’t give a 1 star. But I’ll give a honest review. The place was okay compared to what it was. The rooms are nice when you walk in but if you really look around you can tell repairs were done cheaply. Could have just been my room? From the drywall, caulking, trim, and the shower faucet installed improperly. Water took awhile to heat up when you shower, roughly 15minutes. We found balls of hair on the bedding when you throw back the covers which made you think were these washed… Got food at the new restaurant, I feel like it was overwhelming for the staff to have 1-3 customers. Food took roughly a hour each time. I understand they are still doing construction and renovations but if so reflect the price even more for the ones who stayed during that process. It says on Google 3 Star hotel, and I got that 3 star experience.
