Ellen

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Room had air handling system that started about every 20 minutes with incredibly loud noise. It woke me up all night long. I didn’t realize that I had booked through a 3rd party. Check in was 4 pm, check out 10 am. The facility had the audacity to charge $20 for their outdoor amenities, even though there was on about a hour and a half of daylight to use them on our 1 day stay. Lastly, the restaurant (which having an onsite restaurant is a priority for deciding where to stay on this trip) was closed until Wednesday at 11am, an hour after checkout. All and all, wish we had stayed somewhere else.
