Hotel is OK with breakfast, coffee. Hotel has a pool thus the room smells a bit breached. Carpet is dark and unappealing. But room is spacious. A bit old hotel but good for a night.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Rooms were fine, a new desk chair was needed as it looks to have been repaired many times-not a deal breaker. We had a lightbulb out in the bathroom, but was not an issue. We swam late in the evening and no swim towels were available, but we asked at the desk and were given some when we were done swimming.

Staff is really helpful & accommodating. A busy Sunday breakfast had plenty of food but staff had a hard time cleaning tables. Monday was calmer and much better, but always had plenty of food or if asked, staff would restock. We rebook this hotel repeatedly
