The only issue we had with this location was that my children were hoping for a 'bigger pool, with a water slide.' Other than that, we enjoyed it, like we do every other time we've stayed at this location. Thank you

While staying there, for 3 nights, our room was not made up once as I couldn't find card to put on the door. The third night we had to call for towels and were told by the housekeeper that if we wanted our room refreshed we needed to put a card on our door. When we checked out, there was a DMF charge on our bill. This is a Discretionary Management Fee. What in the name of god is that. We didnt have our room cleaned or the bed made and no additional shampoo, no conditioner at all and one facecloth for two people for 4 days. If I stay at this hotel again, I will tell them up front that I will not pay the DMF. Have stayed thete many times and this was definitely the worst time.

Terrifying experience

- What appears to be black mold in the shower caulking which is a safety hazard - What looked like a lens of a camera in the top vent above the toilet - light reflected off of it similar to a camera lens - Lime residue on the shower head which looked like it was from a Junji Ito horror manga - Loose washroom door handle and lock - Nasty residue above the toilet - What looked like "carvings" and various damage in the wood of the washroom cabinets - The TV is on the room's desk instead of a stand which makes it impossible to sit and watch TV from the chair while sitting at the desk - People in the hotel rooms beside mine literally slamming and hitting objects against the wall - Strong smell of feces in the hallway between the pool and the laundry room right as I was bringing my laundry to the room - when you consider that the pool also has a multicolored RGB light in it, and the fact that the LGBTQ flag is also multicolored, this makes a suggestive reference - Maintenance person right beside the laundry as I went to do my laundry making very loud noise and running grey pipes which looked like they were from a Junji Ito horror manga - Maintenance person mopped the floors between the elevator and laundry right as I was bringing my laundry back to the hotel room - A patron who saw me walk in and bring my stuff to my room threatened to kill me while talking to the hotel manager

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was very nice and clean. We chose a room with a kitchenette to make ourselves dinner. The downside was the ventilation was bad so for the rest of our stay, the room smelt like food... we also didn't have salt, pepper and olive oil nor were there cleaning supplies to do the dishes. We asked the front desk and they came to give us what we needed to clean the dishes... still no salt, pepper or olive oil.
