The breakfast was fantastic! The pool area shows its years, but it’s a fun swim out pool. Unfortunately, we were unable to use the pool. They have adult only 10-11, but when we went down there was a sign that the pool was closed. We went the next morning and used the hot tub, which was nice. They were doing work outside, so debris was coming in the pool. There were signs that new carpet was being installed in April…it needs it. We would stay here again.
