The cleanliness of the room was not up to par. The furniture has holes that were sewn and long hairs in the freezer that was also frozen over because someone had left the fridge open before we got there. Also we were not told housekeeping would enter our room to clean even though we booked 2 nights. I did not like that and thank that’s a crazy policy. Also 2 vehicles appeared to have gotten windows busted out. 1 on night one and 1 on night 2.

We stayed at this hotel for one night on our way home from Nashville spacious room. We had the one with multiple beds. The beds were unbelievably comfortable very clean. Breakfast had many good selections and the woman who was taking care of the dining area area. Worked her butt off, keeping it clean and well stocked we went to the pool, which was nice and good for young children. My only complaint was the hot tub had been closed off and no longer there but the pool itself was nice and quite large. I would definitely stay here again.

The only issue I had was that my room had a water leak in it from the a/c and instead of vacuuming up the water, they just put some 1x1 floor pieces over it but my room still had that dank smell of standing water. The staff and everything else was great.
