Nice place

The place was nice! It had two air conditioning units to keep the room cool and reduce the humidity. The pictures on the wall were surprisingly nice and I had my wife and my son independently notice out loud how pretty the pictures were. The pool was garbage. Overly hot and humid and just unpleasant place to be in.

Beautiful location! The man at the desk in the evening was a little difficult. But the views from the hotel out weighted everything else. It is an amazing location.

I don't need to talk about the location. It has everything you need for a small-town quiet atmosphere. The property was relatively well maintained. Staff are friendly and the room is great. The bed is especially exceptional!

This hotel is in desperate need of a serious upgrade. No smart TV’s (and tiny ones at that), old carpet, mishmash of upgrades, uncomfortable couch, poor lighting. The only thing this hotel has going for it is the location and a comfortable bed. It should cost 1/2 the price but because of its location they feel they can get away with overpriced rooms and ratings. Seriously disappointing.

This is an amazing venue and the staff are outstanding. The restaurant is absolutely phenomenal. All in all I will always stay in this facility when I stay in a hotel. And will encourage friends and family who come to visit to stay there too. View is magnificent.
