Très décevant pour le prix
Odeur d’humidité forte, saleté au plancher et vanité. Aucun savon pour la douche. Petit déjeuner sans saveur ni choix. Salle à manger très petite pour le nombre de clients.

Most expensive room of our trip with the worst breakfast. No meat offered. Only sugar coated cereals. Charged an extra service fee (? for the breakfast) when the price was already way too high!

Serviceable hotel for a night's stay
Hotel is nothing spectacular. They charge you a 104 per day resort fee for parking, pool, and breakfast. Parking spaces are small for even a car. Pool is small and only open till 9pm. Breakfast is miserable. Overall, overpriced.

We had a pretty good stay, staff was friendly. Room was clean but we had to leave door open for a while due to the smell. Took our breath away, very musty, much like a dirty old wet carpet. Pool was clean with lots of room to lounge kids loved it. If you are looking for a hotel breakfast combo, don’t stay here. This place does not serve a hot breakfast (eggs sausage bacon toast etc) There is no waffle maker or fresh fruit. We stayed two nights and our kids were hungry very disappointed we had to start out mornings at a restaurant for breakfast when we already paid for this with our stay.

Check in was most unpleasant. The attendant was behind plexiglass, did not speak up, entered information inaccurately, and was not friendly. The check in area has multiple signs saying how much things like checking in early would cost and the things the hotel would not be liable for. Again, very unwelcoming. The breakfast was not very good and the space was inadequate for the guests. The room smelled, perhaps from a prior smoker. The sofa in our efficiency was stained.

The hotel was OK, the photos online made it look much nicer than what it was. Breakfast was VERY limited, there were granola bars, apples, toast, jam, muffins etc. There were no hot breakfast items available. The room we stayed in was near the road and was quite loud in the morning when traffic started. The pool was Ok but it was next to the parking lot (by the main road) and smaller than it looked in the pictures. I believe housekeeping comes every other day, and after 10 pm there is not staff until morning. There is a number to call if issues arise. All in all I would stay again, but I had higher expectations.

We were in a room facing US 1 and it was very noisy all night. The rooms wasn't the cleanest- mold On the shower curtain. A long walk to ice and vending: nice front desk she ate at late check in - but be sure to call ahead if you’re checking in after 10pm.
