Nice room, view brick wall, but comfy bed, nice pool but charge leave would not stay again
Pros:

Loved pool, was farther from town than thought but quiet area lot of parking.

Cons:

They charged us a $5 water fee? Leaving they said to use pool? We brought our own water and pool charge odd! They woke us up using drill unlock door across way. When we got to room we couldn’t get in! Keys didn’t work had go back downstairs. Tissue box only 1 tissue not new box and no hairdryer in room. To unstop drain have push down on it. Shower water didn’t get hot.

Très bien situé et très propre.
Pros:

La propreté. C’était spacieux. Proche des sites à visiter. (À pied pour le Mayflower et le moulin). Malheureusement, nous n’avons pas eu le temps de tester la piscine.

See above
Cons:

We had a basic room with no amenities, view or charm and feel its high cost did not reflect what you provided.
The air conditioner was very noisy and interrupted sleep.

It was okay, multiple reasons I booked a room there I couldn’t enjoy. Maybe it’ll be better next rkm
Pros:

The room and bed was comfy , spacious, the hot tub when we finally got to go in in the morning was nice .

Cons:

I wanted to show my boyfriend in this hotel on Christmas Eve. I used to go there as a kid all the time and I remember it being one of the best hotels even as an adult. We didn’t get to make it to the pool in time at night time which was disappointing and we didn’t know the restaurant was closed, which was another bummer I was looking forward to, there was also no breakfast in the morning, I figured because everybody travels for Christmas that if anything there would be more than everything available for us, I just wish it maybe said that on the website because those two things were the main things I booked this hotel for. The jets in the hot tub were very weak. I thought they were broken. I felt the price wasn’t worth it because we didn’t get to enjoy half the reasons I went there for and we traveled 2 hours .
