Not the best night of sleep

The room would not cool. It was a cool winter night and we could not get the thermostat to come off of 77 degrees. It was a very hot night. The pancake maker was broken which was our deciding factor in staying there and the pool was really cold. I was just wanting to swim a few laps and wind down with the kids, but it was so cold, I couldn't.

I would really like to give a nice review. I will say that check in went great and we received great service. This was our second time staying in this hotel. Our first visit went great. This visit we were disappointed. Quarters were unavailable at the front desk for the coin operated washer and dryer on site. Of course i ran out half way through my cycle at 9p.m.! No one was at the front desk so i called their main line and was told they didn't have any because they ran out (this was a Friday night) and go to the gas station down the road! The next day, the front desk was able to give us two dollars in quarters. We brought them up stairs. Lost one on the floor but we were so excited to find two dimes and a nickel! My son went down to exchange it for a quarter and was refused saying they only take dollars. Luckily we ended up finding the quarter and got our clothes washed. Breakfast food items ran out. Cinnamon rolls were always out except our last day and we were there 5 nights. I got the last salsa, the last butter, and my son got the last bacon. It's unfortunate but I'll probably try a different hotel next time. Location is great, but it's like the staff just is burned out and doesn't care anymore. :(
