Hotel was clean, good breakfast but the service was awful. First I got there at 3, I booked 2 rooms one for me and one for my parents, we wanted close rooms, neither of the rooms were ready, I told them I was able to wait but they were not interested. I ended up not having the room together. The second thing that just made me super mad was when going into the elevator we got in. There was a men that work there, he got mad at us because we enter the elevator. He made a not pleasant comment and exit out the elevator. The 3rd issue was the pool, they don’t explain that the pool is close Sundays after 12 and Mondays on the website. I booked it because I wanted my kids to go to the pool, I got there and the pool was closed. Overall the hotel was clean and comfortable but the service was awful.
