Pool and hot tub were closed and nothing was offered for compensation, not even an "we're sorry." When I brought this up, all they did was offer to cancel the reservation. Not helpful, and honestly rude. The rooms themselves were nothing special except that door sweeps/seals were missing. So anything could get into the room from under the doors (both outside doors and inside adjoining room doors had this issue). And things did indeed come from outside, as I spotted a mouse multiple times inside my room. I had to use tools to seal the bottoms of the doors. All in all, i would never come back and would advise for people to avoid this place.
