Rise

I would have given this a five star rating, even though it is an older two level walk up motel that has been revamped. The design is cute and the pool and pool area is fabulous. The design is cute and the pool and pool area is really enjoyable. The pool is heated every day to a warmish 80?. The rooms were clean and the decor was a little worn but attractive and the beds were super comfortable! But now for the bad: the mini split air conditions were terrible. They barely cool the room and they were extremely loud and recycled with whining, rattling and shaking on and off all night. We were in two separate rooms, and ACs were equally bad in both rooms. Even when we turn the ACs off in our room because we could no longer take the sound, we could hear the room next-door through the wall, their AC rattling. I was told that they plan to replace them all in the near future. If they do that, at that time, we will gladly return because the location was really good and again we really love the pool. We had a rough start when we first got there as we were requesting and promised a downstairs unit due to my auto immune condition and at the last minute we were put upstairs, but they did Change the next day. They were very nice about it. But because I was in pain from the climbing up and downstairs and not sleeping from the terrible AC, I expected and still expect some refund. Overall, a cute place. If they’ll just make a few upgrades and fix the ACs, we’ll be regular customers.
