Worked for stay close to airport
Worked fine to stay close to the airport before flying out. One employee to do everything it seemed so prepare to wait for shuttle. Dog friendly so that was nice
Room was good and clean, but the TV wouldn't connect to anything so couldn't watch anything during my stay.
Somebody kept trying to break in the back secure door burning and ripppig the card reader from the place it sets.
The pool was amazing the hotel was beautiful and quiet. I was t a fan of the beds though a little hard for me.
Quick overnight stay. Easy pick-up at the airport, even though it was late night and staff was extremely friendly. Room was great. A/C unit a bit loud but not complaining as it worked great even during terrible heat wave. I stayed at this hotel several years ago prior to the renovation; they did a decent job. Would stay here again!
If you are staying here for the pool, DONT. We stayed here for 2 nights for an early Christmas gift for kiddos to swim & the pool was like taking an ice bath. They claimed it was heated and it was NOT. Turned purple & shivering after being in the pool for 10 minutes. Staff & management didn’t care nor did they offer a partial refund. No hot water for the shower or bath either. Will NEVER stay here again or recommend to anyone.
