There were stains on the floor and ceiling. The ac unit was also hanging on by a thread. There was this weird stain on the table in our room that I couldn’t even remove myself. And I couldn’t have a late check Out. Otherwise the hot tub was very nice and the pool was great. Bed was comfortable, maybe they can start offering complimentary fans? Or put ceiling fans in? That would be a nice addition. It gets very hot at night no matter the temperature it is at.
This is the weird stain I am talking about
The restaurant at the hotel has high reviews but I ordered the mozzarella sticks and they made me very sick.
The breakfast is $16.99 and I believe that is too high so eggs and bacon with bread and fruits as the all you can it. The bagel on this plate was hard as a rock. Thankfully my breakfast was included with my room otherwise I would have not went there
