It was just my husband and I, no kids. The room was very nice and so was the staff. We just didn’t have cable tv only an antenna. There was also no breakfast but didn’t really look to see if it was offered or not.

I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and spacious the room was. My dad and I rented the hotel because of hurricane Helene and like I said was very impressed with the accommodations. Will definitely go back there again

Had the pool mostly to ourselves, while was a plus! Doesn't allow anyone without a drivers license to rent, which kept out the rif raf! Older hotel but clean

Not fancy but a treasure!
For the price this is a fabulous hidden gem in my opinion. Shout out specifically to Liana the front desk worker who checked us in and Theresa the lovely cleaning services worker. They were both so attentive and friendly; Liana worked with us to find a room where we could see our truck and kayak and Theresa was so joyful letting us know she was there for our needs.
The rooms are dated with some wear but it was meticulously clean (probably thanks to Theresa!). The bed was comfortable, the AC fine, and the water warm. The pool and hot tub were great amenities, plus there were well marked snack and ice machines.
It's not fancy, but it was perfect for us and we would patronize again! (The app won't let me add photos right now but I did take photos because all was very pleasant!)

Clean Room and convenient location
Clean room and convenient for “Sponge town”.
Decor very dated and could do with refurbishing. It was like walking back in time to the 1970’s, 1980’s 😂
