The first night our room had bedbugs, and since my trip was for work, I was awake the whole night and couldn't rest well. But the second night they changed our room, but the bedbug bites were bothering me.

The free breakfast was quite disappointing. Although they offered apples and mandarins, there was no real variety of fruits — for example, there were no bananas. There was also only one type of bread and one type of cake, with no variety in baked goods. Overall, the selection felt very limited and not suitable for a hotel of this level. Many basic and essential options were missing, and the breakfast did not feel complete. Breakfast was cold.

Young male check-in staff member was pleasant enough but female (management?) failed to acknowledge me (i.e. apologize) that side door was locked on cold, stormy day. Ring doorbell not hooked up. Had to ask for room on second floor. Note: never assign a ground level room with sliding glass patio door to a female solo traveller unless requested. TV channels limited and reception poor. Netflix and You Tube only accessible with personal account. Scalding hot water and thunderous toilet. Noisy heating system. No comment on breakfast as I left without attending.

Having booked this location primarily because of the indoor pool, it was very disappointing that the pool’s heater was not functioning nor were the jets for the hot tub. Secondly, while perfectly functional, I have never seen such a small bathroom .There was only 4 inches clearance between the toilet bowl and the door , the counter was only 30 inches high! Yes I measured it! The floor tiles were not level and the entrance had tile angled down from the BR floor to the room floor with thresholds to transition on each side. Quite the trip hazard!

Overall was a nice stay. Pool heater was not working, but could go across the street to Hampton Inn if this was an issue. Was a slight inconvenience, but my young kids didn't seem to mind the cooler temperature. Staff was friendly, decent size room, could use some updating, but was fine for our stay. Gym was nice.
