The beds were terrible -- too soft, saggy, and just worn out. We had to move rooms after 1 night because there was no hot water on the 2nd floor. The breakfast buffet was OK, but some hot food items were cold. You should add a microwave oven so guests can reheat cold food.

I didn't like the mishandling of my daughter in law reservation. She was not notified of problems with her reservation until day of arrival which resulted in our family being separated and staying at different locations. I found that to be very unprofessional.

Comfortable Stay

The staff were friendly and they tried their best. Unfortunately we checked in in the evening around 8pm and there was only one person working the front desk so it took a while to get our keys. The rooms were spacious but old. The sofa had lots of stains and furniture looked dated.
