I booked this hotel exclusively because they had an indoor pool and we needed a break from the Winter. It was the primary reason for staying here. Upon entering the hotel, there was a sign informing us there was no pool heater, therefore, no pool time whatsoever. Unfortunately, I booked through Expedia so we just stayed and made the best of it. But, truly we were so disappointed in this reservation.

Cold indoor pool

We have hair in the floor in our bathroom and sink upon arrival. We chose this motel due to indoor pool for the grandbaby and the pool was freezing and we were not even able to get into the pool. I did go to the front desk and ask about it being heated and was told they would get someone to look at it The next day, it was still cold. So very disappointing.

I would definitely stay here again. I just didn’t care for listening to a dog bark for several hours. I notified the front desk and they were going to contact the persons staying in the room to come in tend to their dogs. It just got to be too much. I’m not against dogs staying at hotels, but in this case I was.

This was a very comfortable place to stay during a conference at the adjacent conference center. It has easy access to the waterfront path and a variety of good restaurants are a short walk away. The $22 daily parking fee was a surprise and may cause me to consider one of the other nearby hotels to avoid have to pay that in the future.
