I booked a standard double bed room. There was is no microwave or mini refrigerator in those types of rooms. I don’t know if they have them in a suite, but in a standard there were none. I expected to have those amenities inside of a standard room because anywhere else I stayed it was a standard amenity. The downstairs bar/restaurant was permanently closed. They only serve a breakfast buffet in the mornings for $12 per person and 1 child eats free with per paying adult. The hot tub in the pool area is covered and shut down permanently as well. I was traveling with my family and this hotel did not accommodate my family. I needed a mini refrigerator for juice boxes and nursing milk. It did have a coffee maker in the room but we don’t drink coffee so it was useless for our family needs. Lesson learned we won’t be staying at this property in the future.

Everything was seamless. Staff was very polite and helpful. Only downside was the Air Conditioner, the adjustment was able to go to 62 but the room temperature was a constant 70/72 which is a bit warm for me to sleep in.

Expedia advertised there is a hot tub. No working hot tub in years. Pool was ice cold. Property needs some TLC…dusty, chipped walls, carpets, etc. breakfast buffet…they were more worried about obtaining the buffet tickets or getting customers to pay to eat than they were about providing warm food or cleaning tables. Be better

Very uncomfortable bed. Someone let themselves into my room at 3:30am on the first night. Struggled to get hot water for a shower. Kids running around banging on people’s doors. Generally unkept. Won’t stay again

The property is very dated. The vanity in the bathroom was detached from the ground. The vanity top in the kitchenette area was stained. The disposable coffee cups supplied in the room were too tall for the coffee maker. The mattress in the pull-out couch had stains and holes, and was very thin. The property was conveniently located and easy to get to.
