Disappointed, after staying 4 years prior to see the standard drop so much for the cost of the stay.
Pros:

Standard breakfast, juice machine was broken and not repaired during the 8 nights we stayed.

Cons:

Carpet in rooms was very dirty, walking barefoot left bottoms of feet black. Under the beds were items from previous guests (underwear) drain blocked in bathtub with slimy masses of hair, which meant water did not drain away, no replacement of tissues which was empty after the first day; mould in back of fridge, TV turned on by itself between 3 and 4 am in more than one room. Restaurant and Bar disappointingly slow.

Pros:

The room was fairly clean. Beds were pretty comfortable.

Our daughters & their families came to have supper with us & we ate at the restaurant there - Boss's Pizza. It was delicious & the staff were very friendly & accommodating.

Cons:

When we opened the door from outside to go up the stairs to our room, the stairs were disgusting. Either the carpet was off or coming off & filthy.

We walked thru the pool area & from up above the water looked murky & the base around the basketball hoop was totally full of rust. I highly doubt I would have let my grandchildren swim in the pool if they had been with us.

Breakfast was not good. While we know it's "typcal" hotel continental breakfast, we were not impressed.

Paid a little over $200 for one night - won't probably be staying there again.

Wet, rusty and musty
Pros:

The front desk staff was great. They are the reason for the two stars.

Cons:

We had a pool side room and we had our suitcases on the floor underneath the desk. When we woke up, the sliding door leading to the pool space must have a broken seal as the floor was soaking wet and are things in our suitcases were wet. The floor would squish water when walking by the bed closest to the poolside. There was rust throughout the room and the hotel and an overall musty smell.
