I think my review would have been four stars if my expectations hadn't been so high. I checked out the website and was blown away. After checking in and experiencing the facilities, I was very underwhelmed. I can't even say that they misrepresented themselves on the website, because all the pictures are generally accurate. The hotel has a very "old feel" to it. Everything seems so dark and uninviting. Maybe the lighting on the website was perfect and I only got to see things in "regular" light. I believe if they took the time to update things like the bar, the carpeting, the pool area (which was actually one of the highlights of the hotel), etc. I think the hotel would compare to some very upscale establishments. During my stay, I went across the hwy to a friends room at the "I won't insert the name of this three star national chain hotel". Sat by their pool, looked at their basketball court, hung out by their fire pit, saw the free hot breakfast setup, etc. Its time for Handlery to move into the new age. Its like the difference between going to Donald Trumps pool party and Puff Daddy's pool party... Step it up! There's SO much potential there!
