All and all it was a great place. It was like a make to even get to the pool area. The room was clean and nice except for the mold in the ac / heat unit. Seeing that made me happy we where not staying longer

The hotel was very nice, clean and well maintained. Some of the appliances in the room were a little dated, but overall I was able to enjoy my stay and would stop here again, if needed.
