Would stay again!
The hotel is very secluded, and the map is inaccurate... but just keep going down the road. They're "under construction" but it is still very well maintained and there wasn't any noticeable noise.

Never again
Site says breakfast there was none after 4 days nor was there any cleaning. Key card kept deactivating for no reason. Location is very much out dated and dark. Guests running around 130-330am with management not doing anything.

Beware
First off the road you turn on was blocked off. The hotel is so far back where no one can see it. We got in our room and i turned on the heater and black stuff flew out of it, it looked like it hadn't been cleaned in forever. The air vent in bathroom had so much dust on it. The couch and chair had stains all over and the pillow on the chair had i don't know what on it. Everytime we turned the tv on we had to change it to the right input just to watch it. Also we only had a half a roll of toilet paper and one of the wash clothes that was folded and was hanging with the clean ones was so filthy dirty. Also the breakfast was terrible. The only thing i can say good about this place was the bed was very comfy.

The service on the first day was good, the other days very bad, there are many mosquitoes all over the room and the bathrooms are super dirty, the beds are very small and they don't give towels, there are no maids And they only give a small soap and a paper in the entire 4-day stay, the area is very nice but the stay is not good, I took several photos that I can show

Very pleased...
This property was amazing, much above what I expected. Location is kind of ducked off, place even had a basketball court! If I am ever back in the area then I have every intention on staying here again. Still conveniently located right off the highway though, so plenty of everything you could need nearby. Probably the highest exceeding of expectation thatI've everhad with a hotel!
