The room wasn’t available at 4 PM as advertised. Even worse, they said it would likely be another hour and a half to two hours before the room is ready. We drove over six hours to get there and had nowhere to get ready for our evening activities. We ended up changing in the back of a car and doing makeup in the rearview mirror. Worse over when we finally got into our room after 8 PM. The garbage is were still full from the people prior.

Check in was starting at 4PM, and our room wasn't ready, so we went to the next door brewery for an hour. Came back at 5PM, and still not ready, so we went to a nearby restaurant for dinner, and came back at 6:45PM... and yet again, the room wasn't cleaned. We ended up missing half the first period of the game, and luckily nothing happened during that part. At no point did they even offer any discount for the egregious delay, and I refused to ask, as I shouldn't have to do that. I never had that kind of thing happened before there, so I was pretty stunned about it all. I hope things go much better there on my next trip there.

We had an interior room which was helpful in keeping it warm enough. We stayed during a deep freeze and exterior rooms were staying very cold. It was roomy and very comfortable. There was a lot of noise from both hallways from people and kids going up and down but thankfully didn't last too long. The only downside was the hot tub was out of commission but Eric at the front desk more than made up for it with an alternative solution. We will definitely stay here again sometime.

Staff was friendly. Breakfast was very good! Our room was dirty & dusty. There was a "powder" on the dresser. The bathroom floor was very dirty & hair all over. At some point, someone blew something up in the microwave & it was still there. Our room was very cold. I was told on the day of our departure, the the thermostat was most likely not set correctly. When i went to the desk on our second morning, that was not mentioned. departure, that there were more settings for the thermostat. We were also.told upon arrival that the hottub was down but should be running by the following day. It was not running when we departed 2 days later. Parking was very difficult on our 2nd night as well.
