Staff was great, rooms were clean. However, the property has not been upgraded in years so things don’t work, water drips, pipes squeal loudly. Would probably go again, but not at the rate (or anywhere near the rate) we paid.

This is my second stay at this hotel including a trip in 2024. It is a very quiet location and not far from various restaurants, shopping, banking and just about anything else you can think of with a 5-10 minute drive to Whiskey Rd. They are currently doing some renovations to the rooms by removing the carpets and installing wood floors, which have a nice look. As during my trip in 24, the staff is VERY helpful with any questions or information you ask them for. The rooms are cleaned well and they will respond to any issues you may have in the room quickly. The daily continental breakfast does not have many items or variety, but once again, Whiskey road has many breakfast spots. The rooms are well insulated as far as I noticed, very quiet, with golf course scenery on one side and the front of the hotel and pool area on the other. If you are a golfer, it's a good location. If you like cleanliness, peacefulness and easy access to food, shopping and ease of movement. this may be the place you are looking for.
