"The staff was friendly and great to interact with. The food at breakfast was also yummy. They had cinnamon rolls and biscuits and gravy that were very good. The pool and hot tub area was colorful but could definitely use some attention as they both had dirty sides and standing water surrounding building up alge. The beds were comfy and clean and our room trash and towels was emptied and replenished and bed made each day while there. There was some black mold on the ceilings in the bathroom and chaulk was used as grout on the corners of the tile in the bathroom we stayed in so looked cheap and not done well."
