The room had numerous stains, poor lighting, and could definitely use a refresh. I was traveling with a dog, so perhaps that influenced the room assignment, but I’ve stayed at many pet-friendly hotels that were much better maintained.

Love that it has an inside pool, hot tub, and laundry!!!
The workout room has a good set of weights but needs an elliptical machine and recumbent bike.
Hated to hear the hotel sold to lashings and couldn't compete with well known brands. Will stay again.
