Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Our entry door was apparently kicked or forced open at some point. The door jam was barely screwed back together. The deadbolt did not line up to slide into the jam. The door knob was loose and barely held the door shut. This is the main entry door into the room. We wedged a chair under the knob to hopefully help hold the door closed if someone pushed against it. The toilet seat was extremely small and uncomfortable for anyone to use, especially a bigger person. Had no hot water in the bathroom sink. The blinds were 1/2 missing which allowed everyone to look into the bathroom from the outside while being used.
The staff were very nice. The room was perfect for 3 kids and myself. The tv didnt work well but the less technology the better on vacation anyways. Love how it had a front and back patio!

This hotel is very outdated. They don’t even have an icemaker for people who want ice the price of the rooms do not match what you get in the rooms very disappointing will not be coming. Back. Parking was atrocious too many cars for the space that was given.
Only one family was allowed to use the grilling/cookout area, I'm assuming was his family. And they got thieves running around, stole my cooler from next to my car!!!!! Wasn't gone for 2 mins will not be staying their ever again

I think the pool should stay open until 8pm considering it doesnt start to get dark until 9pm.
The staff is very accommodating & friendly. The pool is immaculate. The hotel is old & dated & needs some bathrrom repairs. Fair price for the convenient location.
Property is so old definitely needs renovation, it’s clean but so old.
I book a suit or at least that’s what they call it but actually it’s a room divided into two, each room has a small bed .
Only one electric outlet in the whole suite, the AC is blowing directly on the bed few inches away.
The grill was filthy nobody cleaned for a long long time.
The best thing about this place is the location.
Not going back.

The toilet was not attached to floor very well the whole thing rocked like crazy, the shower water pressure was horrible a camper does better. The outlet that fridge was plugged into was so loose from wall when plugging something else in it was sparking, there was an electrical current going straight to the metal of the fridge and it would shock you each time opening it. We did tell owner it was shocking us but alls he did was tighten the outlet on wall.
