Disliked: Staff & service
Staff trainee lady was rude. She did not explain service procedures and was very un-accommodating and unprofessional. If we did not arrive so late in the evening I would have changed hotels due to her behaviour. The room was nice, the parking was inconvenient. The credit card refund is 5 business days which is crazy because they took the money right away when checking in.

Liked: Staff & service
The hotel needs an upgrade, although it had all that is needed, and was clean, the furniture and fixtures are dated. The pool area was a disaster the two times we tried to have a swim. Towels were everywhere, there were bandaids and something else that looked like a srynge in the pool. I made the front desk aware, however i was told the pool would be closed in 40 minutes and would be cleaned then. This was against my recommendation that it be closed immediately.

Room was clean. Skimpy bath towels. No maid service unless requested or after 3rd day. Limited tv channels. Paper cups in the room. No glasses. Shower gel and shampoo in squeeze bottles which were really hard to squeeze in the shower. No hand railing or tub mat. Slippery tub. Parking off site at $30 per day. Had to walk half a block to the car. Restaurant ok, limited menu. Lovely pool and decent work out space.
