Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property was in a beautiful location I heard a lot of great things about the hotel but when we arrived they mentioned that since we had kids we would need to pay for a larger room even though I had paid for a queen bed and was apparently upgraded to 2 twin beds. They said it was the law or fire hazard, something of that nature made no sense to me. The larger room wasn’t necessary because our kids are tiny toddlers but they still required me to pay extra for the upgrade. That threw me off because that’s never been a thing that I have ever experienced with 2 toddlers. We probably wouldn’t go back for this very reason.
