This was our second visit to this hotel. The EV charging was a draw as was the pool area! The first time we stayed (in 2023) breakfast was included, we were in the newer ‘ part of the hotel and we very much enjoyed the pool and hot tubs. This time we were in the older part of the motel, there is no longer breakfast included, the boilers that heat the pool were out of order so it was too cold to swim… it was not as clean as the first time we stayed. We did have a balcony with a lovely view of the pool area but we had to clean before we could use any of it. That was disappointing! And I’m not sure our AC unit was working properly. It did come on for short bursts and was very loud. Difficult to sleep through. We did use the hot tub and it was very enjoyable! Not sure we would stay here again.

The check in guy was super nice and chatty with my son, which was really nice, he made us feel welcome. The pool area is really cool, but our room was not- the linens were very clean, but I still felt the need to triple check the whole place to make sure there were no bed bugs before unpacking, because the rest of the room seemed to not be as well kept or clean. Lots of regular bugs and I wouldn't let my son or I walk on the floor without shoes on- ( it was tile, so that was nice). I really considered leaving and going to another hotel and when the check out staff was told we didn't sleep well because of the crawly bugs, they pretty much said nothing and just checked us out; we were sad, because we were so excited to stay here.

Overall the property is good! The best pool in town. The biggest complaint was that they took my entire stay as a deposit and not the $50 they claimed. Caused issues as our credit card would not go through.

The pool and grounds areas were excellent. We felt the beds were not very comfortable and noticed the wall vent in the bathroom was not clean. The building was generally clean, the staff helpful and polite and the restaurant was top notch. We will return at some point. Thank you.

The beautiful pool is amazing but the hotel is on the highway so it’s a bit noisy. The dining room was also closed a few days of the week so be prepared to dine away.

Property seemed ok. Bedroom had small ticking noise, throughout the night. Black bugs on walls and in the shower. Looked like ticks or small spiders. Really up set, that the restaurant was closed Monday and Tuesday. I had picked this hotel, just for the convenience of having a restaurant. Would probably stay again.

Quick stay

We had a great time, we were in town for a medical appointment so it was a quick visit. The pool looked so amazing but the weater and time we got there we never used it. The room was comfortable, it's dated and has some wear and tear that hasnt been done. It was a clean, comfortable room. The AC was loud but kept the room cool. The staff were friendly. Would stay here again and bring out kids next time to enjoy the pool
