This hotel was okay for a one night stay if you’re not picky and just want the basics. It was in need of updating. They were remodeling the front entrance so maybe they will be in the process of working on that. The lobby area was appealing.

Rooms were clean, beds comfortable, but of repairs needed in bathtub surround and tub didn’t drain well. The room itself was spacious and patio door opened into courtyard, very pleasant. All staff were professional, helpful and friendly. Front entrance was under construction but should be beautiful when done. We loved playing mini golf but it is need of repairs for sure. The courtyard was beautiful! Pool and hot tub were nice and gym equipment was great.

It was good. Would return for sure. Front door is under renovations and the door next to it was locked and said to ring doorbell and there was no doorbell so I had a moment where I was worried we wouldn't get in, as we were fairly late in the evening for check in and I thought they closed early. But found the other door around the building and it worked out. Rooms were nice, fairly clean. I did find ours very dark without enough lights. Overall very good, though, and would definitely stay again. Breakfast was awesome. My kids loved the arcade and pool.

Cleaning staff were inconsiderate and were yelling and swearing outside of our hotel room starting from 8AM - 9:30 AM, making it impossible to sleep. The sprinkler system was hanging off the room, the pillows were poor, and there was no fan in the washroom.
