Nice place to visit.

Getting to the property was tedious. The check-in easy. The room was large and spacious. I had a king with a hot tub room. However the carpet was bulking in areas, and there were patches that causes frequent tripping. I slice kn the carpet caused myself to actual fall down. I did have my family express concern about a repeated fall. Im handicapped myself. They offered to accommodate me with another room much smaller by accessible. I declined because I didn't want my grands to be crammed up.. However, I'm told hotel.com has to issue the refund.

The hotel is right downtown and is great if you’d like to utilize the downtown. The beds were comfortable enough. The bathroom was clean. I was charged a deposit that is still being held on my card long after checkout that I was not expecting.

Location was perfect for walking. Didn’t have a refrigerator in my room. Staff was great!! Front desk, dining, housekeeping and maintenance came promptly to fix the tub. Everyone was pleasant!!

Bed spread had a long yellowish stain, tub drain stopper didn’t work, there was a circle cut out in the carpet, dust dirt along wall under a/c, yellow/orange staining along the top of the walls by the ceiling, and we couldn’t close the drapes all the way because they weren’t attach properly at the top.

The pool is the reason we made reservations for our stay. Very upset that was not online that pool was out of order. Ruined our stay. I had a 5 yr old very upset when we went to the hotel for his birthday so he could swim.

Stay somewhere else

While location may be essential, the quality and condition of the place is paramount. Unfortunately this hotel fell very short. The wallpaper was peeling from the walls and there was a constant smell of gas. The walkways were dark and the overall feel was exceptionally dated. We were informed upon arrival the pool was down which was disappointing. We will not stay here again.
