Staff were nice. Our room was extremely small and in the corner. It was probably an old closet or storage room at one point. The heater nor air conditioner worked. As well half the plug ins didnt work. The bathroom was so small that you had to get into the bathroom and go behind the door to actually close the door

Went to checkout, waited while other people after me were checked out promptly. Found staff rude and condensing. Would not stay there again or recommend. Not every guest had a room check when checking out to get my security deposit.

We were upgraded to a larger suite this was nice but the entire hotel was recently renovated and it was well done. The idea of having a sit in breakfast at the hotel restaurant with a voucher is great, this way you dont half people picking at the buffet and the service was excellent . The outside pool was clean and most of the pool is decorated with natural green living trees and not plastic.The only drawback is the arrival and departure area is not covered, so you can be expose to the elements

My stay

The room was large and comfortable. Not necessarily senior accommodating as my mom fell going into the bathroom. The restaurant was friendly and very good, but way too expensive. The pool was beautiful and well maintained. Customer service was great all around.
