Nice room for a great price! Bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. There was a small breakfast, but could use more options along with more drink options at breakfast. Pool area was nice, water could be warmer. The lobby was very welcoming and the staff was very friendly.

Short stay
I don't really have a while lot to stay since we got in late and left early. The beds were comfortable once you get situated. We were all so tired, we just fell asleep. Deal help was fine. The only thing we noticed was one of the USB outlets wasn't working. There plenty of plug ins for the room though

Closed restaurant.
The hotel restaurant/bar is "closed until further notice," which is fine, but the hotel should update their listing on this site to make sure it accurately reflects the conditions. That availability did factor into our decision of where to stay, so this was disappointing.
