The staff were extremely helpful and kind. The hotel is old and has been updated. In cases of updating you can see the corners that were cut in the bathroom. When we let the water run in the shower, something black was coming from the side of the shower. The wallpaper was coming apart through out the room. The hotel needs a full renovation.

I felt like I was working for the hotel. Front desk not friendly. NO Hospitality at all. All the staff looked like they were miserable. I went down in the morning to ask for an extra towel for my Son. This was 8:30am. In a not friendly voice. She said she didn’t have any and I would have to wait till after 9 AM when the housekeepers got there. Absolutely unbelievable. The other.

Hallways smelled and my room had bugs in the bathroom like spiders so I was scared to sleep in a bed I had to check it first. I didn't have a remote control I didn't say anything because it was last minute really late and. I had a coffee machine but no coffee to make some. A friend of mine stayed also at a different room she had the same problem but at least I had hot water she didn't.

Housekeeping poor, other factors OK

The staff were pleasant and helpful. However, the room had not been vacuumed and bits of food were lying on the floor. Also, one of the thin blankets hadn't been cleaned; it had hair on it. We would have welcomed another blanket. The shuttle service was efficient and the drivers courteous. We also thought the buffet breakfast was reasonable value.
