The breakfast provided was poor, with very limited options. There was cold cereal- no milk for two days. Waffles- no butter, and an empty syrup container. Most days I didn’t eat there.

The towels were dirty. Stains on the bedsheets. Dirt/mud on the floor. Breakfast offered - expired bread for toast. Butter and coffee creamer old. The picture for the ad for this place was very deceiving. Way over priced for this place. I feel like I was scammed. Oh well. Live and learn. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Nothing positive about the stay at this hotel.

Room I booked was unavailable a day before my booking as I was told so they tried to upgrade me to a room that wasn't even an upgrade. Wish they would've just told me the tub was broken so I could've booked somewhere else in the meantime as I really only booked the room because of the jet tub
