When you are awakened at 3:00am to fire alarms going off it doesn’t make for a pleasant experience. Front desk staff was completely silent during the entire incident and we were finally told by firefighters that it was safe to go back in to our rooms….That was after an hour!

No house keeping was offered, the AC was out and they kept making excuses on when it would get fixed. They dont offer house keeping over the weekend, you have to take your own trash out and get clean towles from the front desk if they have them. The breakfast was a sorry excuss for continental breakfast. The staff was rude and lazy.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was nice, but had an odd smell to it. Had to get an air freshener to freshen it up. It is also listed as breakfast included. There is no hot food besides bagels and toast (if their stocked- same for drinks). We stayed for 4 nights and each day the quantity of the "breakfast" got less and less. We would have been fine planning to get our own food, etc if it hadn't been advertised that there was breakfast or if both of our stove burners in the room worked.. The pool was also chilly for younger kids. Probably won't stay again.
