Receptionist was very kind and considerate of our late check-in, offering extended pool hours and recommending late night eateries near by. We were very weary of the dark location of establishment but receptionist calmed our worries and ensured us this was a safe location. We had no mishaps and will definitely be visiting again.

The hot tub is not functioning, this is not disclosed on their site. The advertised bar had its doors closed, they served beer from the front desk staff. Spoiled milk at the breakfast bar. The eggs & sausages were barely warm. Waffle mix from dispenser was a weird color so didn't use that. Coffee station trash lid was filthy and the bag was not emptied. Breakfast bar trash can also filthy.

I messed up and made the reservation for the wrong day. The guy at the front desk made it happen for me, even though I paid through a third party. I can't thank him enough. The hottub was down for maintenance, but the 92 degree water temp pool and the suana more than made up for it. I'll definitely stay there again.

My husband and I just stayed at this hotel while we were visiting for a wedding. We came into town a few days early and enjoyed our stay at this hotel! The staff is very friendly, accommodating, quick to provide service, and so hospitable! While we stayed here we ate breakfast every morning, we took a swim in the pool and tried the sauna, and we also used the workout equipment! The room was spacious and clean. The mattress was comfortable and the sheets were soft. The location was perfect for where the wedding was, but it was also convenient getting around to other food places and shops in the area!
