The Weekend Getaway

When we entered the parking lot it was spacious and plenty of parking. We walked into the front door and two gentlemen helped us get checked in. We took a look at the pool area and it was a lot smaller than we expected so we made the choice to not go swimming since we were there for a short amount of time and there were too many people in there. The breakfast bar area was pretty dirty, as people were taking items from there during the night. Overall the hotel was fairly clean and swept. We got to our room and noticed there wasn't any silverware but later found dirty dishes in the dishwasher, dirty table and dirty hotel book with advertisments for places to eat and things to do. I wished they inforced quiet time like 10pm. Out of respect for others staying at the hotel. It was loud and people were being obnoxious and we had to get up early for an event.

Would be excellent if cleaned better

The hotel was quiet, the staff was friendly, the bed was comfortable, the shower had great power - these things we enjoyed. Also the door to close to separate bedroom from rest of unit was very nice. I skipped the “ecofriendly” question cause I have no idea and don’t care about such. I had 3 rooms for family members, we were there for my dad’s funeral. The location is excellent, lots of restaurants and stores close by. Sadly the cleanliness was greatly lacking. I scraped food or something off kitchen countertop, also bathroom sink. Would love to have had a bath but there was no way I was sitting in that filthy tub. There were even some sort of bracelets or something on the shower rod from someone else. Debris not swept on the floor.
