The beds were very comfortable and my wife and I both slept well. There is plenty of food options in the area that are easy to get to. We will definitely stay there the next we are in the area. The room and property were very clean and in good working order. The breakfast was as good as you can expect from a properly in this price range.

Large room, which we had requested. Close-in parking with easy access, good luggage carts and elevator. The downside for us was that, although the room was large, it was woefully under-furnished. In particular was the lack of any flat surfaces to set luggage on, nor were any luggage racks available. They brought us one bench to use, but with 4 suitcases, that hardly does it. So, we used one of the two queen beds for luggage laydown area. Also, the door handle for the bathroom was broken, so if one closed the door from the inside, you were stuck in there until someone on the outside let you out; so, we had to always leave the door open partway. And finally, the electrical outlet at the bar sink did not appear to have any GFCI protection; there was no GFCI breaker at the receptacle, it did not work off the bathroom GFCI, and it was not labeled as being on a GFCI breaker; so, not feeling safe to use it, we went to a local hardware store and bought our own GFCI power strip ($25, took it home with us) so we could use the location for the coffee maker. Beyond those issues, which we adapted to, the room was reasonably clean and comfortable and met our needs well.

I was very disappointed with early check in fees. I actually had a hard time getting check-in staff to acknowledge me. Even after waiting till after the deadline to check in, they were not sure they had a room for me, I reserved weeks in advance. This is not acceptable.

Beds were comfortable. Pool had bug larva floating on it. Sauna was out of order. Really towel and room freshen up every 3 days so I was told. Even after letting staff know my guest were staying 3 days and would like new towels daily had to beg for new towels. As a local treating out of town guest I am very disappointed. This place has obviously gone down hill. The price was rediculiously high for what you get. On a good note the breakfast is really good still.

Very courteous staff, clean facility. Close to chain restaurants but not a far drive to local places. Keurig machine in the room was a nice gesture but there were no additional pods available in the breakfast area. Maybe the front desk had them. The machine coffee in the breakfast area was just fine though. If you plan a late night getting back to the hotel, be prepared to park in the far overflow parking.

We specifically booked this hotel for the pool. We planned to drive 8 hours and then let our kids swim in the pool after we checked in to get the wiggles out after a long day of driving. The light from the pool was laying on the side of the pool with the cord hanging. The pool water was completely still and filthy. We asked the front desk agent and he assured us it was safe because the electricity was disconnected. There was no way we were letting our kids swim.

Disappointed

We made our reservations a week in advance. Stayed here because of the pool area as we had our grand children with us. The pool was filthy and improperly cared for I being a certified pool technician, explained the proper way to care for the pool as the person doing the cleaning obviously had no clue! Pool was clean when we checked out! And our kids were upset that they couldn't use the pool AND the sauna was out of order too!
