The hotel itself is beautiful. But the telephones in the rooms did not work the air condition was not working in some of the rooms. The Wi-Fi was horrible. I was traveling with my three children and my parents and my grandma and I called before to ask for our rooms to be closer and not too far to the elevator due to my grandmother‘s wheelchair. When we got there, they got a little confused and my grandma was put in a room that it was not wheelchair accessible.. that was very kind and helped us move eventually. But when we move to a different rooms, the phones and the heater was not working. The rooms should really have a fridge and a coffee maker it was inconvenient not to have either one. Also, some of the towels like they have been in these use for the past 10 years.

We got room number 11, located at the side of the pool. There is NO WIFI in this area. Front desk staff told me the property was too big and wifi signal was weak or not existent in some areas. Should we needed signal I should go out of the room to the pool area to get signal. The fact is that there was no wifi signal until you almost reach the elevator which was very far from the room.

Expedia should not allow this hotel to claim to offer wifi in their rooms, because this is not true.

Pictures are Deceptive

This hotel is really appalling. The rooms look nothing like the photos they have online. It’s two stars at best with cramped interior spaces, rooms with no windows and garish fluorescent lighting. The staff are cold and unfriendly and seem unconcerned that the room was substandard or that the key kept deactivating (we had to have it updated every day). Worth paying a few dollars for a real hotel.

We booked three rooms and all were assigned to the back of the main building which has no elevator. In fact, our rooms were very far in the back and lot of staircase, very inconvenience for someone who has difficulty walking. Our room number were 16, 48 and 49 and all don't have AC. Room 16 is a very small room compares to other rooms and only has one tiny window which you need to stand on a chair to reach the window. The bed sheet in room 16 also different from rooms 48 and 49 which was very rough. All rooms have portable standing fans but they are very loud. We had to open the window at night but can hear dogs barking till 2am. Wifi was very weak in our rooms. We will not recommend this hotel if you don't have a car nor if you have issue climbing stairs.

Avoid this hotel, for real

I am just going to write as fair as I can, this is a list of what happened to me:
(We book 2 rooms)
1) Very far room from the reception, and the elevator only provide service to the main building, but there are more than 1 building
2) The room wasn't fully clean when I arrived, they finished to clean at the next day (only in my room) (only one room, the other room was clean)
3) The beds are extremely hard, and one bed was broken (both rooms)
4) Towels like sandpaper (both rooms)
5) Very very noisy room (both rooms)
6) Light in front of the door, so the light coming in thru the door frame (only in my room)
7) Disinterested staff
8) Waiters do not pay attention at breakfast (only one small coffee machine for all the guests)
9) The "air conditioner" is just a portable fan
And the most important thing, the last day they didn't clean any of the both rooms, not at all, so we complain in the front desk, and they change us to a room in the main building, and oh surprise! the rooms was a lot better, with silence, no lights in your face for sleep, real air conditioner, soft towels, super clean, soft and nice matresses... the reason? simple, is like two hotels in one, if you pay the full rate in the front desk or thru their website, you will have the nice room, but if you take the "offer rate" you will have the unpleasent room

No windows- unpleasant stay

Took a day trip to gto and booked this hotel the same day. We were looking for a hotel near the city center with free parking, which this hotel had. When booking the room online I decided to opt for the superior room at about 30% higher price. I read the first few reviews that mentioned the beds were hard and the pics of the beds in the superior rooms looked more comfortable than the standard rooms. We arrived and were led to a room right off the reception desk on the first floor. There was an odd smell right away- kind of damp or moldy. That smell attached itself to my clothes and the backpack I was using. The worst part about the room was that there were no windows facing the outdoors!? There was one window facing the lobby which we couldn't open because everyone could see straight into our room. Also, in the morning we were awakens very early by the noise and conversations of people hanging out in the lobby. Worse of all was that without a window it was difficult to get up and feel fully awake without any natural light- we couldn't tell if it was day or night, it was quite off putting. I would not stay here again.

It's a nice hotel on the outskirts of the city, but not too far away from downtown, you can walk there if you like, the place looks nice, it has a nice rustic look. The staff it's not rude but neither too friendly, the rooms are nice, the only problem that I found was the bed, it was hard but funny enough I slept very well on it.
