Not good experience

Housekeepers didn’t clean & change the sheets on the sofa bed and beds. We found a Nintendo Switch someone left in dirty sheets and a blanket when we put out the sofa bed. One of the sheet on a bed had food stains on. So obviously housekeepers didn’t do their job. The location was not great. Breakfast selection was good. Breakfast selection was good.

The toilet had black stuff on the inside of it from not being cleaned properly. The bathroom door was very hard to push open because of rubbing against the floor. We asked for towels after swiming and they refused to give us the proper amount we needed. They also did not keep towels in rhe pool room after they assured us " there will be fresh towels in the morning" and wouldnt give us any when we asked for them.

We checked in at like 2 am so I understand but after driving all night it was kind of annoying that the front desk person had a sign that he would be back in 5-10 mins. I came in, used the bathroom, then parked and he was still gone quite a bit. He did seem busy though so I did feel bad but other than that he was super nice and helpful

Room keys never worked. Greasy fingerprints on the headboard. Room not cleaned. I personally put wet towels and sacked garbage in the hall and it was there for 20 hours. Went to the desk and waited 20 minutes for desk clerk to get clean towels. Saw a housekeeper trying to clean a room holding a sleeping toddler😳.
