Falling into disrepair

Sadly the hot tub didn’t function and that was high on our list of desires. Pool was cold and dirty. Many small things broken or not functioning.

We stayed here in part for the free breakfast but it wasn't available early enough on Sunday. This was a bit frustrating as the girls all had early lacrosse games.

We like how they don't serve the same hot food everyday, which is good for people who are staying for a few days. Staff were accommodating and friendly. Though, towels in the pool area were most of the time out, when you ask the staff for it, they bring them right away. Overall, our stay was great :)

Its more in an industrial. The outside was ok. We entered the attendant was on the phone. They sent me an email earlier saying to check in but im not comfortable up loading my ID and credit card. The attendant did good but announcing a room number aloud is not safe.The room is tiny. Nothing like they showed in the pictures. They seem to use stock photos they use for the hotels.This room would be great for house keeping storage. The window was right where the pool was. We could not open the shades or the people at the pool would be looking in. I turned on the TV which was at 60. With all the screaming outside I can see why. The guest made the pool all theirs. No one was allowed in the pool area, a group set up a birthday party at the pool. Cake, a cover tent and Raising Canes food. I looked up on Holiday inn site and seen they had a handicapped room, 2 bed a acouple kings and a suite available. I sent my kid and her dad to ask if we could trade rooms. The guy said he had nothing else open for the night. I went and they was going to get us a like room but we got the handicapped room which was good I am in a wheelchair but with a struggle. The second room was way better. Dont like communial soap, shampoo and such. Nice mold. The shades were broken. Breakfast nothing like photos. Pancake maker was broken, scrambled eggs 1 not 2 omelets, pork sasuage, turkey sausage, wheres the bacon as showen, potatoes, breads, butter was old, blueberry and vanilla yogert, cereal. Juice
