We were there for my husbands funeral service. I rented 3 rooms and overall all was good. My only complaint would be that the bathroom by the breakfast room said it was a guest bathroom but was told when my key didn't work that it is for emplyees only. We were on the second floor and it was a long walk upstairs to use our own bathroom. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub and guest services were polite.

This was a great place to stay!!!! It was central to plenty of eateries and local parks and places of worship. They were very accomodating and allowed us to check in early and their daily baked cookies were delish!!!!! They have a a great fitness room that I took full advantage of and their daily breakfast was great. I highly recommend this Inn and would stay here again

It was conveniently close to where we needed tobe for 2 days. Spent just 1 overnight to rest. I say for the price we could have gotten more for the money. Room was clean, bed well made, but the shower and toilet room was tight. I like the old spanish motiff of the room and hotel itself.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub. We chose a room with a kitchen but all the plates and silverware were paper/plastic from the breakfast room. Bring your own knives as there are none but the plastic ones. Parking in the main lot is limited so get back to your room early. The second lot is narrow and longer cars may have trouble fitting in a spot.
