I hope to return soon
Pros:

I loved everything, great service from the staff, always helpful and kind. The room was clean, the bed linen was clean, I am very picky about bed linen and this was the first hotel I stayed in and had no problems with the bed linen. The location is close to everything, I loved the pool! Without a doubt, my family and I will be back.

Cons:

Children screaming and banging things in the next room, but it's not the hotel's fault. For me and my family, everything was great.

Never again
Pros:

Easy to find. Rooms were big.

Cons:

Looked like skeleton staff. No bar open. Indoor swimming pool looked like it needed a full clean. The water was super unclean. The rooms were very very tired and in need of immediate decoration and renovation. Wall paper falling of the wall, bathrooms dated and dangerous when using the shower. Plug sockets hanging off the wall. Beds uncomfortable and pillows also uncomfortable.

Good!
Pros:

The customer service was wonderful the employees were friendly.

Cons:

The food was horrible . The wings were so greasy you couldn’t even eat all of them. The menu could be better it is a kid friendly hotel. They should have hotdogs hoagies and more finger foods. People like to just eat simple foods. But besides that the stay was nice. But restaurant could be better.

A wonderful staff and facility. Very accommodating and kind.
Pros:

We liked the hotel staff, giant pool, cleanliness, location and affordability.

Cons:

They need to put hooks on the doors and walls for bathing suits and towels. A "drying string" in the shower would be very helpful as well. And they have lots of empty space in the bathrooms so maybe add a side table to put your toiletries and belongings. It wouldn't hurt to put side tables in the living space too. It was a little out dated but that sort of thing doesn't bother me, I'm definitely going back!☺️

I would not recommend
Pros:

The staff was friendly

Cons:

This hotel was the dirtiest that I’ve ever stayed in. I travel often. Reviews were great, especially for cleanliness. Shower curtain was put on backwards, and would no stay closed during showers do to the type of bar. Blow dryer and sinks were filthy and rusty. There was trash in our room from a prior stay. The curtains were also very dirty (had to open to go to patio). Beds were hard, and pull out couch looked like it hadn’t been cleaned.
