The stay was great! The breakfast was delicious with many options! The only thing was the small pool, too crowded with many people especially during these summer months

I understand there was a storm prior to my arrival. The internet was horrible and I had to use my hotspot to do my work. Cable TV was not working and the TV control would not work as well. The AC would not stay cold and I advised the staff which he tried to reset it however the issue was still happening. Overall staff is excellent but on this particular visit I was not completely satisfied as in my prior visit.

The AC, ice machine and the washer/dryer facilities were not working. The staff is kind but no solution is provided by them. They are sorry for you suffer in a situation. Is that enough? I’m not sure. And the pool is like a hot tub, very small.

The lobby was cozy with beautiful decorations. However, the room I had was not very clean. There was some dirt on the bed sheets, but the staff helped me to prepare new ones. And the toilet was not flushed when I first came in, so I'm not sure sure if the room was cleaned carefully. But overall, the service was very nice

The room was just not clean, it didn’t look vacuumed, had to get them to redo the sheets on the bed. When I was taking a shower I saw nasty oily splatter all over the shower curtain. The door handle was tough to open and close and carpet under door was ripped. The room phone was really filthy. When I complained at the front desk and said I was going to report it to corporate he said it didn’t matter because it’s franchised. Breakfast was horrible. They also didn’t have any toothpaste or brushes. I paid over $200 for one night to stay in the filth. I will never stay here again, they ruined my whole trip!

They Made it Right! We stayed for three nights while visiting friends. The first room we were given was clean, but in bad shape physically (peeling wallpaper, etc.). We decided to ask (nicely) for a different room and the staff was prompt and friendly and moved us to another, beautiful room. The rest of our stay was very comfortable. We really appreciated that the staff didn't give us attitude and really wanted to make it right.
