Mixed feelings
Pros:

The staff was great, from check in toncheck out, they were great. The only issue we had was that we both woke up pretty stiff, the bed seemed pretty comfortable when I sat on the end ,but when we went to sleep the bed was hard and not particularly comfortable.

Pros:

This property is close to a restaurant and movie theater and gas station. It's clean and comfortable. The outdoor areas have flowers, grill, and fire pit. The only problem is no elevator but it's only 2 stories.

Nice place but not well-maintained
Pros:

We paid extra for a room with a hot tub that did not work properly. In fact, the hot and cold knobs were flipped, so I was almost scalded when I thought I was running cold water. The design of the hot tub is just very bad. But did nobody inspect the installation, given the hot & cold water mixup?

The hotel is two stories, and there is no elevator. I'm disabled. Luckily, it was dead when we checked in so staff helped us with our bags. Climbing up and down stairs for three days took a toll on me, though.

The room was spacious and well-appointed. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom, tho, was nothing more than a small closet. The shower was one of the worst we've encountered in our many travels.

Breakfast is standard cheap hotel food. Powdered eggs, a waffle maker, and yogurt.

The hot tub in the pool area was nice but heavily chlorinated. The timer also runs out far too quickly.

The staff was excellent. They were very kind and helpful. The front desk staff is top notch, and our housekeeper also did a good job.

The property was very quiet and comfortable.

Nice staff, clean hotel. Nice area outside with tables, volleyball, pingpong, etc. Pool is open till midnight for adults! Hotel is not right in town. It has a nice up north vibe to it. Lots of trees on the property. More of a country feeling
