Carpet is unsanitary as it is, the carpet in the room was dirty. Recommend removing all carpet from guest rooms. Linoleum is easier to clean, maintain, and na be sanitized.

Its an ok place to stay. I did like the pool, but the chemicals were really strong and there never were any towels. The food was too expensive at the Bayside Restaurant. There was only Valet for our car and it was $60/night. The TV kept in turning off and on. The walls are very thin, you can hear people talk, walk, move, and even snore.

Overall, it was a great stay for the one night we were there. Would I stay again? Probably not. Some of the staff does not have the best customer service. We asked for a luggage roller to bring 8 pieces of luggage down the morning we checked out and were told they didn't have any. I was advised to come downstairs and check with Valet to which they didn't have any. I asked one of the girls working the front desk if they had any more in the back and she looked offended I asked if they had more in a different area. I was also told they didn't have any bellhops available to help bring the luggage down. My husband and I brought as many as we could down on the first trip and the valet asked if we needed help loading the car (probably looking for a tip) to which we replied we had it and actually needed help bringing it down. We did have a nice dinner at Monello that was only a 6 minute walk.
