Stay would have been perfect had the housekeeping person for our room been more aware of the mattress on the bed. Obviously tried to do good by flipping the mattress but failed to realize that’s not possible for all bedding. This one should have been ROTATED. Worse night’s sleep ever. Informed manager. Hope housekeeper is educated about mattress

2 strikes were out!

Ok so we stayed here back on the weekend of july 4th. The internet was out. Which no tv was possible. My wife and I both said, accidents happen it just bad timing. On the last weekend of august.We decided to give it another try. Well this time a water pipe had busted the day we arrived. It was fixed in a timely manner. The problem was, they had to drain the boilers that heats the water that goes to all the rooms. When the pipe was fixed. The boilers never could heat back up the water fast enough to keep up with the demand from the guests. So no hot water and with the water being off they weren't putting any chemicals in the pool.Also no use of the pool. Best part of the stay was location and guess services.
