Great stay

Great for what we needed - room was very comfortable, breakfast bar included was typical, coffee was very good. Staff was very helpful, no issues at all. The pool was small and didn't make it out there - only had two pool chairs so not much room. Only downside is the price - super expensive for this type of hotel but there weren't many other options.

From the minute we arrived things went downhill. Computer system was down so had to wait to be checked in. Then when system was back up and I was told to wait in line and I would be next, some lady comes over who had just walked in and starts complaining and ultimately went before me. I guess if you complain you get preferential treatment. Hot tub went down on day we arrived and I hope you like sausage, stayed 4 days and each morning breakfast was sausage and eggs. Can’t a guy get bacon at least once! I will say that the housekeeping staff was friendly and staff cleaning breakfast area was friendly. Moreover, bed was comfortable but bathrooms need a fan to vent off steam, felt like I was in a sauna.

Check in Problems

We tried to ck in at 4pm on 6-26-25 and were told the room wasn't ready and that it would be ready in about 35-40 minutes.When we returned back at 5:30 the room still was not ready. Fifteen minutes later we were handed the key to the room. Was told the room was actually ready the whole time due to a lack of communication between the room service and the front desk. Contacted the Assitant Manager,Christine Lane about our displeasure. She agreed to compemsate 50 percent off the entire stay. We were also told by her, that Hotels.com will refund us the amount. We have not seen that happen on our credit card balance as of this date and time. Please advise us with any information reguarding this matter. John and Ruth Holstead.
