The hotel needs updating!
They gave us the wrong room. We opened up our door and there was someone laying on the bed.

The hit tub was out of service. The sink in my room was clogged or something - took forever to drain. I didn't bring it to attention as we were busy and wasn't a big deal. These 2 tiny things aside....Myra and all staff were awesome! Would stay again!!

We reserved a suite that was just a few dollars more than a regular room. The amount of extra space was well worth the few extra dollars. There was a very spacious counter top area with a microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker. We will definitely keep this hotel in mind for future trips to this area.
