Pros:

No Breakfast! Due to construction??? didn" t see any inside of hotel.

Cons:

No Breakfast was available. Charged me $15.00 fee for the possible use of swimming pool, bikes to ride, and use of the gym equipment. Told the front desk that we would not be using any of those, but we had to pay anyways! This charge was not mentioned until we checked in and was manditory!!!

Ok
Pros:

The pool was not clean. We had a child with us at the pool as we went to see our daughter and they allowed them to swim. That was a bonus but people were smoking A LOT of pot from vape at the pool and in the upstairs lounge area.

Cons:

Cleanliness of the pool

Overall, room was nice ! Not happy about the 75 dollar charge on my card for incidentals! Should come off when you check
Pros:

Quiet!

Cons:

There was an elderly gentleman who approached me and was looking for someone named Jennifer. Wasn’t sure what that was all about but I saw him a few times. One of my bath towels had a hair stuck in it! I noticed it before I used it!
