I was forced to downgrade my room because my first room had AC problems. The AC maintained a constant 83F. I paid for a 2 bedroom, 2 bath suite but was moved to a 1 bedroom. It would be nice to b

Pros:

It was 105 degrees and our a/c unit did not work in our room. It was 83 degrees in the room and very unpleasant. They said there were no other rooms available so we suffered through a very hot night.

Great space
Pros:

I really liked how much space it and the great breakfast

Cons:

They did a system update during the day so we could not check in to our room until 630pm when check in was at 4pm. We had to sit in the lobby but the children was able to get in the pool. We didn't get a room key until the next morning due to the system update, so everytime we needed to get in the room some from going out someone had to let us in.

Great rooms, great location, not so great other stuff
Pros:

The room was great, the lady that was there at check in and the one that was there at check out where so pleasant and kind to myself and my daughter. The room was clean. My daughter loved the gym.

Cons:

The overnight lady was rude to my child when she went down to get a snack but couldn't remember our room number off the top of her head. She snapped at her and didn't bother to just look up what our number was. I was also very upset that the pool was not open, we did this hotel beciase it had the pool and we where in a great place to get to the hospital every day. I am thankful the pool next door allowed us to use it, but they closed at 8p, and we only got to swim for 30 mins.
