Disappointed that we went told the pool and spa weren’t available at the hotel, they gave you the option to go across to the hotel over the road or to the there other hotel to use there pool. I chose this hotel for the pool and spa. I would have book another one if I’d known so I didn’t have to walk somewhere else. No discount was offered for the inconvenience. Very poor of the hotel not to even tell you when you checked in either.

As of the check-out date on April 18, the hotel pool was still unavailable. Guests had to use the pool at the casino hotel across the street, which required picking up a new room key card at that hotel's front desk. Also, guests had to bring their towels from the original hotel, which was inconvenient!

We recently stayed at the Pullman International Hotel and were quite disappointed to find that the swimming pool was under construction, something we were really looking forward to during our stay. However, the room we stayed in was very nice and comfortable, which helped make up for the inconvenience. What truly stood out during our stay was the exceptional service we received from Georgia at the front reception. She was consistently helpful and welcoming every time we interacted with her. Pullman is very lucky to have someone like Georgia representing the hotel, she truly made a difference to our experience.
