Our room was very clean and accessible. The front lobby/breakfast area was charming and cozy. Breakfast was adequate but minimal. Lots of granola bars. The location was convenient and easy to get to. My only complaint was that the gal at the front desk seemed a bit grumpy, but maybe she was just tired.

The room was comfortable. Nicely updated property. Pool area was lovely. The biggest negative was lack of staff presence. This lent an inhospitable atmosphere. The breakfast continental breakfast was not refreshed regularly - again lack of friendly staff. Were they hiding from the guests?
