"I stay here every year and it never disappoints. However, I have one complaint as this was my first stay where we had to use the sofa bed. For rooms with one bed and says it sleeps 3 people, you need to use the sofa bed which would have been fine if it was comfortable to sleep in. I have never slept on something so uncomfortable in my life! It was literally rock hard I woke up aching and cracking every morning it was not enjoyable at alll! This place makes hella money the least they could is upgrade their sofa beds. It was awful. I’m never doing that again I will definitely be getting 2 beds next time. Also, I don’t think it’s fair you pay all this money to stay there and they charge $120 of you want to check in early. If a room is available then it’s available, why do we need to pay extra? Idk just weird to me. Other than that, we always enjoy our stay here."

We had a little issue with our room’s A/C but that was resolved quickly, professionally and friendly by the manager. Truly, everyone at the front desk superseded our expectations; extra shout out Diane who gives this place an extra spark of life. The owners are doing a great job remodeling and decorating this place but even more with the staff they have chosen all around. We were truly sad to go and will definitely be back!!!"
