We made reservations 4 months ahead of time and arrived only to find that the hotel had overbooked and our reservation was moved to a different hotel. We were not notified ahead time!!! We then check in to the new hotel only to discover our two queen bed room was a one king bed. We were traveling with our kids so we needed two beds. Plus the two queen bed room was more expensive. I went to the front desk to let them know we needed a new room only to be told that THEY were booked up and that’s all they had to offer. Again we made our reservation 4 MONTHS ahead of time. They were able to provide a roll away bed. I then went to request additional towels since we were now in a room for 2 people only to be told they only had 2 towels left IN THE ENTIRE HOTEL!!! Remember this is NOT THE HOTEL we had reservations, we were moved to a different hotel without being told ahead of time, then we get a room with 1 bed when we reserved a room with 2 beds since we were traveling with our kids. Then this new hotel is overbooked and can’t provide the type of room we reserved, then when we request additional towels they only had 2 LEFT IN THE ENTIRE HOTEL!!! Our hallway had dirty washcloths on the floor and trash. This is one of the WORST experiences.

Tammy and her staff did a fantastic job of allowing us to check-in early! All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful! Great hotel to stay at and would stay here again. My only complaint was that several of the guests above and near us were loud after quiet hours.

Sitting in our room on the 6th floor and all we can smell is marijuana. Kids screaming in the hallway and crying. There is next to no water pressure in the shower. When we first got to our room, there was a maintenance cart in there so we had to wait in the hallway. It’s almost 9pm and someone is vacuuming the hallway! The staff is super friendly and probably the only saving factor of this hotel. Based on this experience, we wouldn’t book here again.

The property was amazing however when we arrived an hour after check in began they did not have a room ready for us. We were given very little info and made to stand aimlessly in the lobby. When i tried to get more info the lady at the desk was on edge and although polite she was unhelpful. We were late to put plans because of this and ot was super frustrating. I I don't believe there was even a we are sorry for this inconvenience or an explanation given. I felt more like it was a normal issue for them. I also didnt appreciate that she didnt tell me that we would be waiting until after she checked me in fully. Very unprofessional how the check in process was. The property itself was beautifully kept, clean, and delicious breakfast.

Wow, I do apologize about the way things were handled at the front desk. I do apologize for the inconvenience and I will speak with my team on proper etiquette when dealing with issues such as these. It is unfair to our guests that they feel unaware about what is going on with their delay in check in. Thank you for your feedback and again I apologize about the issues you experienced at our hotel.

Well kept and friendly staff. $10 parking fee was added to the bill which was not listed anywhere in the hotel description.
