New owner changes

Liked: I?ve been coming to this property since I was a young girl. It?s always been family-focused. There?s a new owner who worked hard to make the aesthetics more modern. It looked nice and was very clean. Most of the staff were accommodating. Best part of the stay is the pool and hot tub. When our A/C unit went out we were moved to a new room. It remains a beautiful motel.
Disliked: In an effort to make the motel more updated with decor, the usual comforts have been removed. There is no longer the wonderful breakfast on the patio. It is now a bar, which would be cool for guests. However, it draws in people who aren?t guests. There is less parking as a result. The rooms no longer have a microwaves, refrigerators or coffee makers. Although when I requested a microwave they brought us one. So that was a plus for my kids love of popcorn and leftovers from dinner. They do offer coffee and tea in the lobby, but when my husband tried each morning around 6:30 to go get some the lobby was locked! The water pressure in showers was low and the toilet lids were small. The pillows were small, but comfortable.

Fabulous

Passable

Liked: The location. That is it.
Disliked: They have a bar open to the general public. It impacts the nighttime parking to the point we could not park on property. We checked out after one night. We were told that there would be parking after the bar closed. They need to decide if they want to run a bar, or run a motor court, there is insufficient room to do both and meet customer expectations.

Okay
