Last year we stayed at this facility with our kids and everything was great. However, this time around my husband and I chose to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary here since we liked it last year. Needless to say, Tyler, one of their managers, was extremely disrespectful and dismissive. I had went down to the front desk April 27th. I had just gotten out of the shower so my hair was still in a towel because my husband and I had reservations in Tampa. I had explained to Tyler that our bed was very uncomfortable, our water pressure was very low, one of the lights above the bathroom sink was out, and our bathroom sink only let out hot water. He had offered to change rooms but unfortunately we didn’t have time due to the reservations. As soon as he saw we booked through Travelocity and not through best western, he pretty much became super dismissive and just kept saying that’s all he could do; even after I said we could change rooms around 9pm when we got back. The next morning I voiced my concerns again. He said he would get maintenance up to fix our problems. He also said he could get us another room which we were all for. Once he looked at the computer he then took back what he said. He said I won’t have any rooms available till 3pm. My husband and I, at 3pm, would not be around the hotel. Instead of still trying to figure something out, he became very dismissive again and said that’s all he could do. We will never stay here again and honestly it ruined our anniversary.

Mrs. Hout, regarding your most recent stay, It is very unfortunate that the events that transpired weren't within your favor. Although your issues were addressed the morning of the 27th of April, your statement does not reflect accurately on the dialogue exchanged. There was sufficient service and hospitality offered throughout the conversations that occurred. As a matter of fact, there was an upgrade offered to you the moment you submitted a discrepancy to the front desk. For your personal reasons, you decided to decline this room move that would translate to some sort of compensation given the complication of your reservation being pre-paid. With the offer was declined, we sent maintenance to tend to your needs since you choose willingly to remain in your room on the 27th. As previously stated, the compensation you were looking for did not suit your personal needs on what I was offering you. The issues at hand could have simply been resolved, had you taken up the offer that was applicable to your stay. Following up on the 28th, you wished to move your room as previously offered the day before, at that time in the morning, all rooms of that type were occupied. We advised that we could be able to move your room before noon, which was quickly retracted due to your spouse telling two different managers politely that it was not necessary, declining the offer once again. We are sorry to hear that your anniversary wasn't up to your standards and apologize for the behavior you perceived to encounter. Although this may not be the response that you expected, it is with great pleasure that we strive to lead in customer service. We hope both you and your spouse may continue to enjoy your years together for as long as they last. Warm Regards, Tyler B.

We had an incident that we were not pleased with service. My husband had a stroke and the results were aphasia which means he sometimes doesn't understand all language quickly. He went down for breakfast a few minutes before the kids and I, as he is physically capable. He told the staff he had had a stroke, his name, and room number. They gave him trouble and began laughing at him. At one point another person we did not know stopped eating and came over to help my husband because he saw the incident in question. My husband was very upset. In the 2 1/2 years since his stroke, this is the first time he has experienced this type of criticism and embarrassment. We checked out on the 6th because of this incident and a hurricane coming in. We went through travelocity. I contacted them and they approved us leaving early.

We are sorry that your husband had this experience. We take this very seriously. Please accept our apologies and assurance that we are addressing this issue to ensure it doesn't happen in the future.

Property was sufficient. Staffing was an issue, amenities were in short supply.

We are sorry to see you didn't enjoy your stay. Since your review is anonymous we are unable to verify you as a guest or a record of any issues. A rating this low should have some information for us to address. We hope that any issues you had were rectified.

The hotel was not staffed enough to accommodate all the guests. Housekeeping never made it to either of my room one time. I even called the desk and asked for housekeeping. The elevator broke while someone was on it. It took for time for them to get my keys right. Very debilitating trip and not worth the money.

We are sorry to see you didn't enjoy your stay with us. We strive to provide a stress-free and relaxing stay for all our guests and we apologize for not doing that for you. We do have limited housekeeping service for all our stay-over guests due to nationwide labor shortages. However, if you requested the service, we would have done our best to provide that for you. Unfortunately, I don't have any information about your stay to investigate further. We do hope that you will give us the opportunity on your next visit to exceed your expectations.
