Pool & Hot tub out of order

Booked this room thinking it was close to my appointment and that it had a pool and a hot tub. Well the pool and hot tub were both out of order (and had been for weeks). Then I get to my room and theres no bath tub only a shower, and absolutely no t.p. in the room. I had to call doen to the office immediately. But the people working there were all very nice

This just happens to be a problem of chain hotels that say they have restaurants and hot tubs in their amenities list and for probably the sixth time in the last year no hot tub, pool and the restaurant is closed. It was pretty funny whenever I was voicing my feelings to the front desk guy. He handed me a snack said sorry there’s nothing he can do about it!

Dinosaur theme hotel

Pool hot tub closed for maintenance but not a deal breaker. Good breakfast with hot food options. Friendly staff. Carpets worn , heater in unit loud but that drowned out the city traffic noise for us country folk. The dinosaur theme seems great for families. Nice selection of games etc in lobby that can be borrowed during stay or purchased.

So Disappointing.

Nothing was working - the room cards could not open anything, the ice machine was out of order and worse of al the Wi Fi was not working which was disastrous for my son who needed to work. I asked for a discount but do not know if I received one. Would never stay here again.

TV had no picture

The first room the TV didn’t work. After trying another remote and still no picture we were upgraded to a suite that was great. Breakfast was great. I do have to speak to the front desk since they overcharged my card by $100.
