Excellent check-in. They let my brother and I get adjoining rooms and the rest of my family all stay on the same floor. We really appreciate that very much.

The size of our King Suite was bigger than most rooms I have ever had, however, in desperate need of new carpeting and a new thermostat? We noticed after arriving the room was only at 67 degrees. We set the temp to 72 and left for a couple hours. When we came back the temperature had not changed at all. I called the front desk and she immediately offered a space heater. While I appreciated we had some form of heat, no offer to fix the problem would make me think this is a common issue perhaps? The bed was comfortable, and it was quiet at night. The pool temp was a bit cooler than I am used to so I didn't swim much. The hot tub one the other hand is very big and very nice!

Had to request a room change because of an overwhelming smell of weed on our floor and our room was lacking in cleanliness, especially the bedding. The front desk woman was accommodating and set us up in a different room, but we will most likely look elsewhere in the future.

The hotel is fine if you don't mind being subjected to 86 degree temperatures in your room. Apparently the boiler system in the building allows for 3 options...Heat when you select Heat, Heat when you select Cool, and Heat when you select fan only. Everyone in the lobby complained about it but the staff couldn't do anything to fix things. Stay clear.
