"The room was clean and the housekeepers provided excellent service. My only complaint was the beds. The mattress was old and you can hear the spring pop. Other than that, the stay was good. I would stay again because of the convenience. I did have a good night sleep until I heard the spring pop. Didn’t use the pool or hot tub this trip."
