Bathroom not very well cleaned -- poop stains under rim of toilet, and a couple long hairs in shower. Also, one desk lamp was broken (and thus unplugged).

The room was clean and comfortable. Microwave, coffee, and refrigerator all clean and working nicely. Breakfast was quite good (toaster oven is elderly, though, and doesn't toast). Pool and hot tub were impressive. Hallway walls and carpet are very shoddy and dirty and spots are ripped. With the quality of the rest of the hotel, we were quite surprised these public-facing areas were allowed to become so thread-worn. Bar and restaurant were good, with exceptional staff friendliness. We'd stay again, but replace the carpet and the breakfast toaster, please!

The room we stayed in was AMAZING! Their pool was too cold for comfort, and most of their breakfast bar was closed. Otherwise it’s one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in!

The property was beautiful but the cleanliness of the hotel room itself was poor. There was a pod left in the keurig, there was trash left on the floors, and the matress had a pee stain on it. There was also a cockroach crawling on the bed 😐 you could tell that the bathroom counters hadnt been wiped down and there was so much hair a soap scum in the bathtub drain that the water pooled up while showering. I am disappointed.

We had a nice stay. Loved the 2 person jacuzzi tub. The room was large and clean. It was also quiet. The room had 2 air conditioning units. One had some rattling noise, so we turned it off. The location was quiet and convenient. The staff were all quite friendly. The breakfast was a typical mid-range hotel breakfast. It was a Sunday morning around 8:45am, so keeping it stocked appropriately seemed to be a challenge for the staff. That would most likely be my only complaint.

Room was large, bed was comfortable. The hallways and common areas were dirty, looks like the floors needed vacuuming. The breakfast was horrible, very few offerings, broken juice machines and generally untidy. The hotel wasn't very full, so no excuse for this.
