Better last year

Our stay was okay overall. They only had one elevator working, so it took forever to get to and leave the room. They were sold out this week. It was frustrating. Stairs are fine, but not with young kids who do not have the stamina to climb up to the floor in which we were staying. Housekeeping failed to leave us TP and coffee (wanted both each day, lol) each time they did a “tidy-up.” I always had to go and fetch these from the front desk, which never had both in stock. So inconvenient. They never left enough towels; 2 towels is not enough for 4 people. Beware that the pool now closes at 8 pm, and that’s barely enough time to get back after 5pm, go and eat, and actually have time to swim. Otherwise, the room was clean and most of the staff were friendly. Sadly, I will probably look for a different hotel when we come back next time.

Cool stay, no major complaints the only thing I disliked that wasn’t detailed upon booking was the ridiculous parking not only is it on a completely different building across the street/next door it’s also an additional $22 per night only for 1 vehicle so we had 2 vehicles & they don’t offer additional parking so we had to find parking elsewhere up the street. I’m a very experienced traveler & I’ve never experienced this whole parking ordeal I would’ve definitely booked elsewhere had I know this ahead of time. Overall tho the hotel was clean & the stay were nice

Coming to the property I had just been involved in a automobile accident where my car was totaled and unbeknownst to me I was suffering from two broken ribs. Staff did everything possible to make me comfortable, answer any questions, and even walk out to the garage later on in the evening to hand select a parking spot when I thought the garage was full. Thank you everyone. I will return to the area and when I do I will choose yours to stay at.
