Staff was friendly and great! Breakfast was more than sufficient for kids and adults. Dining area was well stocked, and nice and clean. Room was very clean with the exception of the sofa and the bathroom. Bathroom had some shoddy maintenance and shower didn't drain. The garage is attached via skywalk so you do have to carry your luggage pretty far. Otherwise, a pretty solid stay for the price.

So this is incredible. Julie is great and saved my butt. I had scheduled a lift driver for the airport and he never showed up. My flight is at 5 :06 am and it was 3:30 am and no ride. Julie found a taxi for me and gave me 3.00 to help pay for my ride. Amazing and she did not hesitate. If anyone knows her I would love to return the favor. Thank you thank you thank you. You saved a middle aged panicked man.

The property was very welcoming to our dog. The family that I encountered on the way to the pool said the pool gave them a horrible rash The couch in one of the doors in the room had extremely questionable stains Upon checkout the hotel double charged the credit card for the dog resulting in having to dispute The room itself was very pretty the view is very nice aside from the cleanliness issues I mentioned I don't think much needs to be done to raise it to a very acceptable place to stay And I am assuming that my experience was a fluke

The staff checking in was great, the room looked like it needed to be swept and mopped, the AC in the living area did not get cool, it was hot as heck in that room, the freezer worked but the refrigerator did not get cold. The keurig did not shut off until the water was empty and overflowed the cup. The staff the following morning , she was very unprofessional, rude and snappy towards my children.

Rooms were nice and clean, only issue ran into was that when asking staff questions, seemed they were very inconvenienced. Late at night a group of people were having a party basically in the main lobby which noise went through entire building. It would have been nice to have seen the staff set up and have them quiet down but overall the rooms met expectations and at the end of the day that’s the most important factor
