Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The location was lovely, near a golf course, and the atmosphere was pleasant. However, the rooms had a terrible smell and were not as clean as expected, with bloodstains and crumbs. On the bright side, the staff was fantastic, super friendly, and incredibly helpful.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The service was really good overall, especially led by Bruce, the head of Maintenance, and the food and beverage manager who were incredibly accommodating. The location had its drawbacks due to a strong chemical smell, but the atmosphere was lovely, perfect for specific events like Camaro fest. When it comes to dining, I enjoyed the food quality despite the slightly high prices. The facilities were decent, nothing extraordinary but functional.
The hotel had both positive and negative aspects. The rooms were a bit dated and not properly cleaned, making the stay uncomfortable. However, the service was decent, especially with helpful staff members like Bruce from maintenance and the food and beverage manager. The location was convenient, but the strong chemical smell was a significant issue. The dining options were average, with pricey choices. The facilities were okay, but not exceptional.
