Pool and layout were good. Life guards were a little immature but families were with their own kids so everyone still seemed safe. Check in guy was a bit rude. Waited for several minutes with my license and credit card out before he even asked “do you need something?” I told him yes to check in.

We were so looking forward to our time at Arrowwood and it really let us down. From checking in (front desk staff were rude) to finding old food on the floor in our room, to walls that had substances on them, bed spreads were dirty, coffee maker never cleaned, looked like mold in the heater/air conditioner, we then went to a birthday party at the pool where 4 of the kids (2 of mine) got a bad rash from the pools, turns out there were several more children affected from the pools on Saturday night. Turned the hosts bathing suit from a hot pink to a dark purple. When some front desk staff mentioned to management they shrugged it off. The only good thing about the hotel was the Baxter Bar and Grill. Will not go back, very disappointed.

Trash from the prior guests was still on the floor and in the trash cans. Staff appeared skeptical that we were telling the truth. I expect MUCH more for a $300/night room. The property as a whole was good.

I was double charged for my stay. I was charged through Travelocity, but than had a second charge show up for my stay as well. Called the hotel immediately after noticing, and they stated it was just a hold and would go away (although I say that charge as well). But figured I would give it time and see, then I checked recently and they had charged me for the room again. Very disappointed, how many other people have they done this to, and they didn't catch it...
