The hotel is very run down and in need of repair. Key cards only worked sporadically, bathroom fan broke, no drain stopper, door to bathroom sticks. Bed was ok and AC worked. Hope the new owners renovate!

The place was great a little pricey and we were told the pool and hot tub was working and when we got there it was not. A little disappointed about that as it was one of the reasons for our booking. Overall was a good stay. It did the job.

We went to check in at 4pm and our room wasn't ready. So we had to wait. They were dog friendly which was great. Expedia doesn't do much with communicating this need, which needs work, but glad they allowed us to have our best friend with us. The bathtub was clogged and filthy. After I cleaned it, it finally drained. Overall it's a good place, but does need some deep cleaning.
