Unfortunately our stay didn’t go well. We experienced racial discrimination 2hrs into our stay. They also called the police on us, all because of the receptionist racial bias towards our teenage boys who were enjoy themselves in the hot tub after there tournament. They where not disturbing anyone, no other guest there. The words she used towards us and the kids were uncomfortable and unpleasant. Police report was taken we were not at fault. Will the hotel take responsibility, probably not. Sports parents if traveling don’t stay here if your a person of color.
