The man working counter was very nice, but this morning when I told the women I left hairdryer in room she was a very perturbed that I bothered her. I was trying to be kind and she was very cranky, there was not a hairdryer in the room and the maintence guy brought one up that attached to the wall. I asked that it be reattached till after we left. She was very rude that I even bothered her but I did not want to be charged for pulling it off the wall which I did not do. People in the hospitality business are supposed to be kind not bothered to talk to a guest.

Breakfast was good for a continental. Shower was strong and hot. Pool was closed! Bed was very stiff and room tv was pretty small by modern standards. Overall average experience at best for 3 star with pool closure being a huge disappointment my family was unaware of when booked. Small town problem i guess.

In Desperate Need of Updating!!!

The tub stopper didn’t work properly. The TV was manufactured in 2010. I think it was a 27-32 inch TV in need of updating. Ironing board looked 15 years old. Front desk lady had no personality. Pool and hot tub broken 3 years. Front desk said they can’t do a late check out unless you sign up for IHG membership. In other words, you didn’t sign up for them to sell your info and send you lots of spam mail. I will stay somewhere else next time.
