Some positives, some negatives
The 2nd floor smelled like smoke as you got off the elevator and went down the hall (in the carpet, etc - not just like someone had just smoked), beds were a little too hard and pillows were thick and stiff, no softer options. Bathroom sink wouldn’t drain and the shampoo & conditioner bottles were tiny (maybe 2”) and extremely difficult to get the contents out. Was nice to have a restaurant on site, although pricey and side item wasn’t as ordered. Good variety for breakfast. Was advertised as having two pools but there is only 1 small, cold pool. A little odd to be swimming/enjoying the hot tub as people are sitting around the whole pool area eating their meals as the pool is in the middle of the breakfast eating area and restaurant overflow seating. Convenient location right off a main street with a McDonalds in the parking lot. Hotel parking is a bit limited. The town has a cute downtown area/town square.

Perfect!
Everyhing was great! A wonderful experience. The restaurant in the hotel was also exceptional, and full every evening. A really nice place. The only flaw is the cleaning service where you have to tell them to come and what to clean. I forgot to tick "clean the toilet" so they came in the room, did the other things but didn't clean the toilet.

We celebrated a birthday. The pool area with pool side rooms created an environment where we could be all together. Our room was clean and quiet. Breakfast had a variety and was well kept during a busy morning.

Good room layout, comfortable bed and easy chair. The only negative about the property is the elevator is a bit clunky. Otherwise, everything is A OK.
