They overbooked the hotel and still ran my card and told me it's hotels.com's problem now. Saw one of the rooms and it was absolutely disgusting. Had to walk to a different hotel down the interstate. Staff was incredibly rude and had half a dozen reservations behind us that were also ignored. Stay away.

Be aware that indoor pool doesnt mean that the water is warm enough for swimming until summer. Part is uncovered and the water flows between the 2. Pool property was not maintained and trash was by all the chairs. Water was tracked thruout the hallways. Breakfast consisted of limited choices, including wet scrambled eggs and no butter for toast.
