Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities

My husband is disabled and the handicapped rooms are as far away froth elevators as they could be. he is not wheelchair bound but has difficulty walking, so it was extremely difficult for him to walk to the truck and back to the room, causing him to have to door dash instead of leave a few times during our stay because he could not make the walk. Also we arrived late at night and the luggage carriers were not available when we arrived making it difficult to get our belongings to the room. The day we left we requested a late check out due to my conference. Housekeeping walked in on my husband multiple times, once when he was getting out of the shower trying to clean even though we had a late checkout.

Big improvements were made

I stay at UP a few times a year and not too long ago, I have felt the rooms have gone down hill. AC not working correctly, noisy or dripping water on the floor. Check in was a bit of a nightmare, but this last visit, my room was clean and perfect. Check in was fast and easy.

Two bottles of fireball were found beneath the bed by my six-year-old daughter who was playing with them. We would’ve never imagined that a hotel room would have containers of alcohol left behind in it. We were pissed we brought to the attention of the front desk upon finding them who said they couldn’t do anything about it, which is perverse needless to say. As parents we strive not to expose our children to dangerous elements or purposely endanger our children. However, this hotel was outright negligent in terms of cleaning the room, finding a known danger that could and should have been found upon reasonable inspection and due diligence, and rectify the situation after they were told of the hazard. At bar because of their negligence have they exposed and endangered the welfare of others be it ourselves and our three children. We will give the hotel a few more days before taking additional action to be refunded as the terms of our stay have been violated regarding tendering a clean, suitable room, free of known or discoverable known hazards upon a reasonable inspection such as cleaning. Finding open containers on and around the bed area when the room should have been cleaned not only highlights how unclean room was but also establishes how hotel staff endangered the welfare of others… alcohol exposure, body fluids and so much more.
