The pool was not heated and we had to change into our swimsuits in the public washrooms; no change rooms or showers located in the same area as the pool. We could not change in our rooms because we had to go outside of the hotel to get to and from our room.

Positives: The staff was very polite and helpful.

Negatives: Going outside to get to our room.

Have seen a big change here being a resident of the town. The new ownership is working hard and I cant wait for a overnight getaway in the new jacuzzi suite.

Positives: New ownership great staff.

Negatives: Old building poor image.

Very good to travel just for fun but not very practical for work since Internet is not available in the room.

Positives: Very friendly people working there and available.

Negatives: Having to go outside to reach the lobby and no internet in the room.

I was first worried about the rooms when I pulled up, because some of them were a part of an old, outdoor motel. However, once I got to my room, it was very nice.

Positives: The room was nice, and it was right off the interstate.

Negatives: The room was very small.
