Overall Score3.0/ 5
They advertise a full family restaurant however there is none. Pool was closed but no mention of it when booking room(s). I won a free night at the hotel while I was there. Tried to use it when checking out but manager had to approve it and he was not available. Not even there, however he would be later that day. I wasn't waiting. Now to avail myself of the free night, I'm going to have to come back sometime before 12 30 2020. 6 hour round trip for me. They advertise free cookies but none were available. Breakfast food was not very good and no variety. Rooms were comfortable, clean and a little bigger than most others. Staff was very pleasant and helpful.
