This was our last hotel on our way home from a long trip. We loved having access through our “back door” into the covered atrium. Although I have mobility issues, I was able to get into and out of the pool by myself. The breakfast was amazing, and the food was plentiful. Fresh tortillas, “real oatmeal” (not dry packages), etc. we also had a very nice dinner. Can’t say enough good things. I’m sure this a renovation of an old hotel, but it was perfect for us! Extra points for the Keurig style coffee pot!
