"Overall, this house was a comfortable stay. Only 2 things; the couch is horrible. Looks new but it’s “sittability” is a 0. Other thing is that the shower located in the laundry room gets only lukewarm water. It wasn’t a big deal 2 us with only 2 guests, but it may be an issue with a larger group. Other than that beds were clean and comfortable, kitchen well stocked, heat worked great during the short cold front that moved in. Would stay there again."

8/10 Good
"Generally good; although some things need to be fixed and improved, such as loud noise the ventilators make, some swimming pool side chairs are torn, this hotel is generally good. This was the second time stay for me. It was good The room is huge; even the huge sofa bed was there. The floor carpet felt quite old, so it was kind of old, so I suggest you better wear slippers or something. The shower head was a modern one: big circle one, which is not efficient. I like old fashioned smaller head that water comes out sharper, not spread out to widely, that also make the water powers weak. The breakfast buffet was fine; well balanced food groups ( enough protein, fresh fruits, cereals, juices, etc) Shuttle service was very much appreciated! That is one of my biggest reason to choose a hotel when I travel. ."
