Over all we had a good stay and will most likely stay again next year.
Pros:

It was close to food and stores. It was clean. The staff was very friendly

Cons:

There was a strange smell. I’m not exactly sure how to describe it, but in the common areas. Also not enough seating in the breakfast area. We ended up sitting in the chairs in the lobby holding our plates.

We stayed 4 days. It was adequate but not worth the price.
Pros:

Location was good. Coffee was good

Cons:

Poor condition. Pool was cold as was the hot tub. Outlets in room were all loose, couldn't plug anything in. Odd smell, toilet wont flush half the time, tacky black plastic bats on every wall for Halloween. Deadbolt didn't work and peeling wall paper. One front desk person was a little rude

This is the place that had gave away our room we had paid for.

This stay will cause us to look for a different hotel group!
Pros:

The room itself.

Cons:

The eveing/night shift clerk. The awkward elevator entry. The fact that we asked for close rooms for the 2 we booked but were on completely different floors. That the room with the children was directly across from the staff laundry, which was loud. That somehow the request we made turned into a request for early check-in, which we did but it wasn't requested. That we were charged more then we were supposed to be charged. That when we went to the front desk clerk to ask about the extra charges they immediately got an attitude and when we smiled big at them they took offense to it. That the desk clerk made it very clear that they were the only one working and they were not happy that they were having to bring towels to the pool, or help guests that were patiently waiting for them.
