Didn’t sleep well

We had a lot of trouble sleeping. It wasn’t terribly noisy, but someone was smoking pot outside our window at 11pm. The comforter was very thin and there wasn’t any other blanket. The breakfast was pretty good. It would be nice if there was a selection of teas and if there was some sort of flavored coffee creamer as well as hot chocolate. We will probably choose a different hotel next time.

Still haven’t received my $100 deposit back. Room had someone else hair in the bathroom sink. Why do hotels only put 3 towels in the room when you have booked for 4 people? The lady who did the breakfast and kept the dinning area tidy verbally got annoyed with the little kids who made little kid messes. Everyone in the dinning area could hear her.

CONNIE at the morning front desk was the best part about staying here! Breakfast was decent, coffee machines didn’t work in the AM (worst time to not work) and the rooms… well…. Thank God for Connie… the night time desk clerk needs “southern hospitality” training or something… but like I said.. THANK GOD FOR CONNIE she saved the day!
