It was a very nice hotel. The staff was friendly and very helpful. I accidentally choose the wrong dates for my stay, and luckily they had a room available. The manager was very helpful in both getting me a new booking and resolving my accidental incorrect booking as well.

If you like reading reviews when looking for a place to stay like I do, go no further because my husband and I loved "the way back" so much. From the cleanliness, comfortable bed, soft pillows and drinks at the bar. The pool and Jacuzzi area is very cute. Anytime we are in this area we will definitely stay there again.

8/10

The hotel was nice, good location. We stayed because it was cheap and dog friendly. There is a $150 dog fee, which I didn’t realize when I booked it. I understand about the pet fee, our dog did not mess up anything. They did put three $100 holds on my credit card even though they told me upon check-in they were putting a $100 hold on my card. I’m fine with the one time hold, but not three at $100 a piece. When I asked during check-out she said they would come off except the pet fee. There were pool parties both nights we were there which were kind of loud, but we were in a room very close to the pool. I would say this is a hotel for younger people. Overall a good stay. The bed was super comfortable and the room was clean and didn’t have a smell, which is always a plus to me.

This hotel is a mid century modern lovers dream stay! Room was very comfortable and every detail of the design was well thought out. The refrigerator was even vintage looking (but did seem a little small compared to other hotels I’ve stayed in). Lobby snd lounge were absolutely gorgeous and the pool area was lovely and comfortable. Breakfast was priced similar to restaurants in the area and was delicious. The only downfall I can think of is that there wasn’t a microwave in the room. I was amazed at the price—-it was such a great deal for everything the hotel had to offer! Would definitely stay there again!!
