The management is not very understanding or accommodating to extenuating circumstances. Our 1 year old son became very sick on this trip and we had to leave 1 night early. We went to the front desk before checkout and explained the situation. Management refused to refund for the night or offer a credit. I was hoping to get the chance to stay here again, but I no longer feel this way will be taking my business elsewhere and suggest that everyone do the same
