The Hotel definitely looks like it’s being worked on but things could speed it up. Elevator was dark. Door to my room could be open with a push. Didn’t realize until last day. Stairs were not vacuumed. Rooms didn’t get serviced the 3 days we were there. We asked for fresh towels and was told to return dirty ones. Which was weird. Our reservation was for 2 but on 1 night my 2 kids stayed with us. She actually looked it up when I asked for towels. This is what made my experience terrible! Just give the towels. Price was great but not worth the safety concern or service we received.

Very pleased...
This property was amazing, much above what I expected. Location is kind of ducked off, place even had a basketball court! If I am ever back in the area then I have every intention on staying here again. Still conveniently located right off the highway though, so plenty of everything you could need nearby. Probably the highest exceeding of expectation thatI've everhad with a hotel!

Should be removed from booking sites!!!
The pictures on here are at least 20 years old. Place is ran down. Dock is literally falling down!!! Staff was extremely rude when asked to switch room so to the toilet not flushing.
