The staff was extremely rude and unfriendly upon arrival. I stood at the counter for 15 minutes with a toddler before someone decided I was good enough to be taken care of. There were two employees there bluntly ignoring me. The pool area was well kept though.

The TV did not have an HDMI port, so my son could not play his games while he waited for me. The breakfast was $22 and was NOT CLOSE to worth it. The bathroom was super cramped with no shelving or stools or hooks for clothing. Other than that, the pool was amazing (don't forget the goggles).

Heat was broken and blasting at 90, maintenance couldn’t fix it. The solution was to turn the heat off and room temperature dropped to 50. Could not stay in the room in either environment and hotel could not provide a different room or a refund.

Concierge was was not very accommodating in changing my room assignment. Seemed very uninterested in helping me. I was with a large group attending a wrestling competition. Hotel staff was rude and condescending about arbitrary rules regarding eating and drinking in the lobby. I would not stay here again

Less than I expected. The outlet in the bathroom didn’t work. The provided hair dryer didn’t work. The fan cover in the shower fell during my husband’s shower. The rooms were clean but the refrigerator was very small and there was no microwave. Very dated. Since the rates are higher than many other places, I expected more. Wouldn’t stay again.

They will charge you for the room even if you call and cancel the booking more than 24 hours ahead of check-in time. This is off-season when they have plenty of room available. Hotel of this size should provide flexibility. Don't book through Expedia. They are of no help!

Marie

Traveled with group
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room had chipped paint, curtains that dragged on the floor, no bathroom fan, a chipped cabinet, "art" consisting of wallpaper in a frame with a large bubble in the middle, poor lighting requiring a flashlight to fill the coffeemaker, an old barely working refrigerator, no free wi-fi (really?) and finally, was advertised as a king with a sleeper sofa, but was a king with a chair. I suspect that this was their room for Expedia users. The property was poorly maintained with no usable back door for those unfortunate enough to be in room 172. Better than camping, but not much!
