The room was clean and spacious. Safety with fire place atleast to put fireplace fence for kids as they are curious all the time to touch the glass ( there is a note not to touch the glass but 5 years old and below does not able to ready yet. I understand it is parents responsiblity to watch your kids, just a suggestion) Otherwise the while stay was awesome where my kids mostly stay in the pool.

No, it was dusty, bedsheets hairy. We booked for five they only had the two queen beds made and no sheets for the pull out couch then they handed me sheets that has so much stain so I had it replaced.The pull out bed is sunken in the middle and every slight movement I made it makes a very annoying sound.t

The room felt neglected. There was baseboards missing in the room and a lot of scuffs on the wall/cabinets. The breakfast was poorly put together, running out of food and when asked if a table could get wiped down because it was dirty the staff handed us a cloth to do it ourselves. The pool was cloudy and there were band aids on the pool deck for multiple days that would suggest it had not been cleaned. This was not my first stay there, but it is definitely my last.

Room was dirty. There were significant “dust bunnies” under the bed frame. Front counter staff said that should have been swept. Hair on pillow cases and bed sheets. Did not appear that sheets were changed. Housekeeping was asked to return at a later time to clean the room, they never came back. Luckily they had another room we could check into after our first night. Breakfast offerings were subpar. They had cereals and self make oatmeal. Scrambled eggs were quiche texture and lacked taste. There was rotation of bacon or sausage. Only bacon was edible. They also had stale premade waffles. Pool water seemed saturated with chlorine. Every one of us had very itchy and dry skin after using the pool. My kids had rashes which went away after essentially bathing them in lotion. Asked the manager to follow up with us concerning the experience and it has been 2 weeks without any call/email. Seems they do not care.

The room is very nice, love the fireplace and there is a spacious area for the fridge, coffee and cup etc. The shower was freezing at 6:30am (when not alot of people are using it). I ran it for 10 min then had a cold shower for another 10min. The front desk says it can take 15 min to warm up. It didn't. This would also have been nice to know on check in - just so I could try and run it a bit longer. Plus - that's a huge waste of water!
