Disliked: Staff & service
Older property, but still nice. Property seems clean despite areas of disrepair. There is a smell of stale cigarette smoke in multiple areas. Rude staff at check in. It was late and it felt like I was intruding on them. I was at first ignored. It was a confusing check in experience. I stood silently and waited to be addressed so I could give my information. Two people at desk ignored me. I think maybe they each thought the other should help me. Very awkward.

Bed ug

Planned a two-day visit pleasantly surprised at the size of the room and adjoining suite, but right off the bat we noticed almost every surface had something on it so I had to go to the store and buy cleaner to wipe off all the surfaces even the window had something smeared on it it looked like food. To make matters even worse on the last day we had to check out early because we found a bed bug.

1, This is a 12-15 minute ride from the airport. 2. The shuttle service did not operate on Sunday morning. I was told to call Uber. 3. Several problems: tv needing a service man to repair; towel rack without an end piece; lock in room not working as batteries were not in; phone in room not working.

Unpleasant

Another family had a giant party going on with many rambunctious kids. It made it impossible for us to utilize the pool. Staff was aware and did nothing. Particularly concerning because the kids were engaged in dangerous behavior like running and climbing on the slide that was blocked off as broken. TV didn’t work and we had to have staff come fix it.
