Staff was above average, check in above average. Parking area is small and difficult to find parking when nearly full. Beds were way too soft for anyone with back issues.

The biggest disappointment was too much chlorine in the pool. The pool water was cloudy. The chlorine burned you eyes in the room without getting in the pool.
