All the doors and cabinets in the room were not great. They seemed very old: Beds were very good. Staff was really nice. Breakfast is only, yoghurt, granola, muffin and fruit. It’s only a few minutes drive from town. The pool was closed when we were there and it’s the size of a big hot tub..

We enjoyed our stay here. The outdoor pool seemed to be heated and was really nice. They ran out of pool towels but that's not a big deal. There were unique amenities like complimentary s'mores at their other building (half mile away). There are also bikes available to use. Breakfast options were limited but good. There were also trail mix snacks available at check-in.

Loud compressor noise kept my wife awake all night. My guess is it was 40-50 DCB. It sounded like it was behind or below ourroom 222. Other than that the room was clean & Roomy. With all that the view from our room was amazing!!

Staff was kind and polite...Property description was not at all accurate. There are two separate properties so know where your going to be staying when booking. Restaurant and pool at a separate location. Rooms extremely noisy and can hear everything. Be prepared and bring ear plugs. Continental breakfast was scarce and ran out of food.

This hotel was supposed to refund our money. We got there to check in on 06/11. The person that was supposed to clean the room did not show up and they had 15 rooms not ready at 4. When asked when the room would be ready they said they had no idea. There was several angry people waiting for their rooms in the lobby. I never received the refund. We ended up staying at The Stanley and still waiting for our money back! Hotel looked run down and needs new management!
