Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities

Overall it was not bad but here are my “complaints.” We stay at a hotel mostly to sleep, right? The pillows were not comfortable, therefore it was difficult to sleep comfortably through the night. Also, from my experience, a Queen bed usually has 4 pillows. We had 2 queen beds and one sofa bed so we should have gotten at least 10 pillows but were only given 7 pillows and one of them was so “bunched up” that it was not the shape of a pillow. They should invest in some better pillows. Furthermore, the sofa bed mattress was so uncomfortable. You can feel the coils! I felt so bad for my family member that had to sleep on it.

We were disappointed that when we checked in with two kids present, we were not told the pool was not operational even after we asked how to get to it. I had two very disappointed kids on Spring Break!!

The stay was great. However, we got a handicap room because of our late check in. The shower leaked the next day onto the bathroom floor. It got kinda messy. Overall it was a good stay besides the shower and bathroom.

I liked everything about the hotel, except the uncomfortable mattress, which I remedied with my backpacking air mattress. Everything else was perfect, including details like glass rather than plastic glasses. Quiet and roomy.
