When we arrived, they asked us if we wanted to be inside the hotel bldg or around the outside of the hotel where u can pull up. My husband & I both said pull up on 1st floor would be great. She gave us a diagram of where we will be staying & when we pulled up, it looked like... More

The room itself was ok. New linens and furniture. They seem to be trying. The pool area needs work and our room smelled of mildew. I would stay somewhere else next time.

We were very pleased with the large suites (two full-size rooms)! Exterior and interior in a woods cabin style. Each room was appointed with faux stickely furniture, two tv's (one for the kids, one for the adults). Large bathroom, walk-in shower, kitchenette (refrigerator, microwave, sink). About 150% the size of most average suites. Breakfast was Ok (need to change it... More

For as old as the place is, it was nice. It was clean and the staff was friendly. We ate dinner at the resteraunt, it was as good. The price was okay, but maybe could have been a little cheaper. The pool is big and nice, the hot tub was clean and perfect temp. However, they might want to have... More

Cracked headboard, no electrical plate over outlet, and outdated decor made this place feel rundown. There was a huge gap to the outdoors along one side of the heating/cooling unit that created a cold draft in December. This place just needs some maintenance and updating to bring it back to what they think the room is worth.

A man working the front desk was the rudest person I have ever encountered in customer service. He told a family member that accidently locked her key in her room, that she was not a customer of the hotel (even though it was our second night staying there). He refused to help her, told her that the room number she... More

Arrived before check in time. Had to wait in the bar ( understandable ) only to find out later that some of our group had arrived and checked in. Would have been nice to wait by the pool with our group. When asked, cherk was defensive and rude, but met the minimum. ( the very minimum) . The clerk must... More

We had our Wedding reception at this motel. The block of rooms we had reserved was all messed up. People were scatered all over the motel. Some were overcharged for the rooms, and didnt get the wedding party discount. A bunch of peoples credit cards were declined, and the cards WERE good. We were charged $248.00 for a service charge...
