The hotel is beautiful. The room was lovely and clean, but the bed was rock hard. The breakfast hot foods were cold, and several people tried to find someone to fill the waffle batter, but no one was at the front desk for about an hour. I just left my key cards in the box after waiting. It really was a lovely place, though, and clean.
Night staff turned on the lights so I could go swimming as it was still pool hours. Also an extra feature I was not aware is that there was a nice place to sit and look at the small pond that was connected to my room.
In general this was a very clean hotel, room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The second day we stayed there the second floor had a very strong sewer smell but didn’t hinder our stay.
Wonderful hotel in Monticello, check in was easy, breakfast was good but could have been available later as it was a weekend, nice big pool. We stay here every year.
Amazing, clean, friendly, great breakfast, beautiful nature

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Spacious lobby and room, friendly staff. Nothing fancy but no complaints. They do allow smoking in some of the rooms so if you are very sensitive to that, I would maybe reconsider. My room was non smoking but had a bit of a smoky smell.
Very nice hotel for the area with a nice gentleman at the desk for check in. Breakfast was good too!

Staff was excellent! Our stay was for an event happening in the town. For our trip we just needed somewhere clean, safe, and not overly expensive and this gave us exactly that.
Staff are incredible..helpful and juts overall very friendly. Place was super quiet and has a lot of amenities like the gym and pool. Also, the breakfast is really good relative to most places.
