The property is relatively clean and organized. We had decent beds, good pillows, and the room was comfortable. Ongoing remodeling left the halls and common areas a bit less desirable. Breakfast was good with a lot of basic options.

We chose this hotel for the pool, which seemed larger than other hotels of a similar cost. We really enjoyed the fact that it had a deep end- 12 ft!
The hotel itself was decent. It is an older hotel, but seems to have been maintained well. It felt clean. Staff was friendly at both check in and check out.
The breakfast was very nice and there was a good selection.
