Average & dated

Large facility. Ample parking. Check-in was a bit cumbersome. After a long drive, we were looking for an after a long drive, we were looking for a restroom in the front lobby, which is down by the convention area. Restroom needed attention. Attendant said they’d put us in adjoining rooms, but when we got to the rooms, they were actually across the hall from each other. Air-conditioning in rooms but communal spaces and hallways have none. Limited places to eat if you arrive late in the evening. One of the rooms Did not have hand soap at the bathroom sink and the other bathroom had someone’s hair in the tub that was not ours. The hotel said it is pet friendly, which it is, but at check-in, we were not charged a pet fee and then upon leaving, they called to let us know that we needed to settle up. This made it very awkward since we weren’t advised that there would be a fee.

The feel of the place is inviting. I’m guessing the place was pretty popular/nice a few years back. Definitely in need of some modernization and cleaning. Overall, the stay was good. Kids enjoyed the indoor/outdoor pool. Again, I feel the place needs a thorough cleaning.
