No pool all weekend

This experience wasn’t the best experience I have had at a hotel. We were located in a very hot town. The one thing we were looking forward to was the pool. We weren’t unable to use the pool because the pool was so over crowded. We couldn’t understand why. When I say over crowded I mean we didn’t even have a place to sit. Now while waiting to try and get in the pool we saw people coming from the back gate. When asked we were told they weren’t staying at our hotel they were staying at another hotel but they were able to use the pool because their pool didn’t work. When brought up to management they said there was nothing that could be done because they were a sister hotel. I didn’t feel that was fair at all. Pool was closed at 9 so there was no time to ever get in.

Far Below Our Expectations

We checked into the hotel — at first it seemed there were no available rooms, but at the same time, there were almost no guests inside. We usually like the Marriott chain, but this hotel is clearly not part of it. Breakfast was advertised as included, but in fact, it was not. Some guests were offered water at check-in, but we weren’t. We got lucky with the room view — it faced the pool. The hotel itself is quite old: the furniture and carpets have a noticeable smell. The mini-fridge could only fit a couple of bottles of water and a sandwich. The bathroom door wouldn’t lock, and the mechanism for filling the tub was broken. There was no microwave or anything else in the room — and this is supposed to be a 4-star hotel... From my experience, I would rate it 3 stars or less, though maybe I’m being subjective. Either way, I wouldn’t stay here again.

It’s tired and needs an upgrade . The furniture is very 2000 ish there were no effective black out curtains . My room faced east and the early morning sun ligjt woke me up. There is no breakfast buffet . What they do have for breakfast are muffins for &6.50 and nothing that isn’t packaged and thrown into a microwave oven . In the off season it’s especially bleak.
