New Hotel, excellent condition, cold pool

College tour trip, hotel was great. There's some road noise if you are at the front of the hotel. Easy access, all new, very good breakfast and friendly staff. Same as other guests the pool was freezing cold, we had counted on a nice swim/splash and brought swimsuits, but only managed to stay in for a minute. I hope they re set the temperature that seems to be the only complaint in the reviews.

Very nice, clean and updated. If I were to be picky the only issue was the coffee bar in the room trying to get the service personnel to leave more caffeinated coffee versus the decaffeinated, left notes with tips to no avail. Like I said kind of picky because everything else was very nice.

The hotel was quiet and beds were comfortable. The staff was very kind and very helpful. The pool was too cold to swim in, however there was a very nice and clean little gym which we could exercise in. It even had a nice water station! However, there was one complaint. Your computer. There was only one pc and it was very difficult to go online with. I needed to pullup information so a very nice person helped us get on the internet. When we went to pull up the email we needed to print, the pc was not connecting to the printer! So we then tried to print from our phone, and this did not work. It told us to try a USB so we tried that and nothing. We had no time left after all this, to try and find some place else to print this email and had to go without our much needed parking pass. This was very frustrating. Please fix your computers, or do not offer them at all. We were counting on it working.

This property was super clean, however, we did have noise about us running and jumping until about midnight and then it started again at 6am, which in turn work the kiddos in our room. We tried to call the front desk but the phone wouldn’t work. Went downstairs and they didn’t do anything about it.
