Overall, we loved our stay. The free breakfast was especially nice with a mixture of fresh fruits, assortment of hot and
Pros:

This is the second time my husband and I have stayed here and we were not disappointed.

Cons:

The hotel said it was waiting on a heating element for the indoor pool. This was one of the reasons we booked this hotel was for the hot tub and indoor, heated pool. Would have been nice if someone could have given us a heads up to allow us to book a different hotel, if desired.

Very nice place to stay
Pros:

This is nice and unique place to stay. Rooms are bigger and very nice to have balcony. Perhaps some aspects reflect this is an older facility however well kept and well maintained. The staff could not have been any nicer, really a pleasure to deal with nice people.
