Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Nice clean hotel.
Bed was comfy. Room was very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Long wait for check in and to get ice from bar when a party is booked. Breakfast was excellent, except eggs were cold and runny. Pool could have been a little warmer and it was next door. One of the Pool guys needs to stay out of ladies changing room, and give women some time to change and rushing us out before 10 p.m. Store was close by but everything thing else was at least 20 minutes away by bus. Only restaurant in area is the hotel's with a limited menu.
