Shabby

The room was shabby and had a smell. There was no bathtub as promised. The refrigerator was leaking water on the inside. Not enough towels and washcloths and no cleaning service during the stay. Needs a total refresh. Nice ladies at the front desk though.

Reserved ahead of time for my daughter's birthday and wasn't made aware of them requiring a "bank card" to check in so i had to last minute, UPON CHECK IN, try to find someone with an acceptable card otherwise my daughters birthdays would have been ruined. That needs to be communicated because it was very inconvenient and made me late checking in and late to setting up. Felt very rushed and uneasy.

Place was decent. Restaurant was closed the entire time we were there. Also the ice machines weren’t working on over half the floors they were on. Not a huge deal but worth mentioning. Besides that the location was a nice stay, comfy bed, quiet.

Would stay here again

Check in was quick and easy. Our room was comfortable and clean. Guest services were very nice and accommodating. The pool is open but the hot tub is not. Good location. There was a fridge and microwave in the room which was convenient.

We were not feeling very safe, as there was a very strong police presence and fire trucks were there I would have felt a bit safer had there been maybe an explanation or reason for the situation, or if my safety was compromised. Not that I needed to be “nosey” but it was that strong of a police presence. The entire time we were there. From check in to check out. I don’t think we will ever book this hotel again. Shock is sad, because the check in staff were very friendly and the room was very clean. The location was convenient and price was perfect.

The Staff was helpful, but the restaurant was closed for renovations and the hot tub was closed for renovations, So the pool area was basically under construction, but useable and only for children 16 or older.
