When we got there, the place was overtaken by a college football team. We had to park in employee parking and hoof it back to the lobby. We were then told that check-in had been moved back to 10 pm to accomodate the team, then we were told that actually our reservation had been cancelled that morning and we should have gotten an email (we did not.) Absolutely do not recommend as they prioritize big bookings over everyone else.

I thought the room was clean and beds comfortable. The front desk didn’t activate our room keys and in Room 329 long walk back. The restaurant was expensive and not worth it. The Bang, Bang shrimp was 13.99 for 8 little shrimp on a bed of lettuce. Someone else’s wings not done. The pretzel appetizer and pizza good. Service was slow.

The carpet was wet when you walked into the room for the first 4 - 5 feet and smelled of mold and mildew. They neither checked on it or offered to change our room. The inside of the lightweight curtains on the window had many gnats and the area in and around the property was filled with gnats. The food at the restaurant was very good though and their service was very good. We left congested because of the smell of mold in the room and left at 4 am due to not being able to sleep because of it. We reminded the front desk of the wet carpet issue when we left and they gave the response that they would pass it on.

Pool is very nice. Small beds and paper thin walls- very loud air conditioner- that being said- we stay here often- so convenient to visiting with our friends who have a houseboat in the marina

Very dated hotel. Needs to be upgraded. Smelled musty. Room and hallway were very dark. Needs more lighting in room and hallway, fresh white paint would help, remove dark carpeting.

The one staff member was very nice, busy? C but working hard. The interior was very clean. A bit outdated style wise but quaint and clean. The grounds were run down/not well maintained. It didn’t help that a massive storm had knocked down several trees/canopies days prior. But other area also weren’t maintained.
