Negative Reviews

Noise From Neighboring Hotel
While the hotel has a reputation for being a peaceful retreat, there have been instances where guests have complained they heard noise from the neighboring hotel. This typically happens when there is a DJ spinning at the pool, and not on a regular basis.
negative:
Difficult to Find for Some
No huge signs and a sort of hidden entrance have made it challenging for some travelers to find the hotel when they were driving in for the first time.
negative:
Spotty Wi-Fi Connection
There have been instances guests have noticed the iffy Wi-Fi connection. While this doesn’t seem to bother a lot of people, those who have to stay connected constantly may be inconvenienced if the issue arises.
