Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
WiFi did not work at far end of building and desk clerks twice claimed that was just how things were. Stop advertising wifi if it doesn’t work. Also the carpet was so filthy I had to wash my feet before putting on my socks or getting into bed. Had to take out the garbage in my own room and dirty towels were not taken for 3 days. I’ve stayed here many times over the last decade plus and was shocked at how bad of shape the place is now in. May be making other arrangements next year.

I was from out of town, and would’ve liked to get freshened up before wedding rehearsal! The lady at the desk was very rude! She replied check in at 3:00pm no earlier! It’s 2:00pm and not one room is cleaned!!!! I had went through Expedia to book a room, the lady at the desk could not give me the price Expedia gave me for Friday I ended up paying more! Why? The rude lady couldn’t answer why!!!! So be aware when booking in!! I will be reaching out to the BBB. Maybe will get some answers from them!
Paint and plaster peeling!! Dirty!!
Door was dirty and was hard to close!!
Mirror needs improvement!

Staff was friendly. Pool was nice. Bed was comfortable. Location is great. The only thing i was missing was a water station. Lobby seating has a lot of taller bar type tables which is challenging for small kids. I would definitely stay there again.

Found any reason to charge for “damage” to the room which there was none. The “damage”’fee was more than the hotel. Sorry you have to do your job and clean carpets & change sheets that should not be charged. Highly do not recommend.
