Every elevator was down during our 5 days stay and we had to climb 4 flights of stairs every day with a baby and a car seats. They also had a fire citation on the door for this issue. Doing this with 3 children every time we wanted to come or go was very taxing. The owner provided mo compensation or other offerings for the inconvenience. I was offered a room on a lower floor, but it was a smaller room that would not comfortably fit the family and they would not refund me the difference in price. The pool was closed and the refreshments in the lobby were not inviting or good.

I didn’t had the opportunity to enjoy the property because I got there just to find out I was put in no show with a fully booked hotel without any previous notice. When here says that the check in window is from 4pm to 11pm/ anytime. And the hotel didn’t even care about it.

My fiance and I chose to stay here to celebrate our engagement because we had gone once before and had a great experience. This, however, was the single worst experience I’ve ever had from a hotel. We booked our king suite weeks in advance only to be told they “oversold” and we had to be moved to a normal room. (Note; the room had a hole in the window which let a draft in all night, and the shower couldn’t fully drain) We wanted to enjoy our engagement trip and so we agreed and just said we only wanted to enjoy the pool so it wasn’t a big deal, only for the pool to be shut down with no note or email or call or warning. I reached out to the property before check in and was ignored. After finding out the pool wasn’t open I tried to reach out to management. I have since been getting lies and back and fourth with no help. We made reservations for the restaurant and they ignored the noted about us celebrating an engagement and the food was considerably worse than when we went before. The crab special was fishy and very obviously not fresh. When going back to our room our keys then didn’t work and we had to go back down from the fifth floor once again to get the keys fixed. The hotel management needs to get in contact with me asap because this stay was in no way okay. We wasted not only our money but our engagement celebration was AWFUL due to the staff and management here.

Not happy at all
They had a party going on in the atrium hall that lasted until past midnight Saturday night into Sunday morning. When I called down to the front desk to complain the guy at the front desk told me he would ask them to turn it down. But it got louder, and when I called back to complain again no one even answered the phone. My flight was changed to early Sunday morning so we had to get up at 5am. And we were very tired due to not really getting my sleep and being woken up multiple times during the night and early morning due to the partying going on in the lobby. And there wasn’t even a warning or anything that there would be a party either

I tried checking in at the hotel at 7:00pm. Asked what time the pool was open till. At that time i was informed the pool was closed under renovations! I have booked many time thru a 3 rd party and every time any issue that arose i was emailed of the situation! Not this hotel. They told me management assured they had conveyed the messages to hotels.com or expedia! Obviously they had not. At the moment i am still trying to receive a refund because i reused to stay at the hotel. It was my daughters 7 th b day and all she wanted to do was go to dinner and stay at a hotel with a nice pool.

Frank,Thank you for your feed back, it is unfortunate that this amenity was not available to you at the time of your stay. we do work closely with our 3rd party partners and they have all been notified of the amenity issue and I'm not sure why it was communicated to you and that is why we offer a no cost cancellation due to the inconvenience. We hope that you will give us another opportunity to provide you with an improved stay. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to make your future visit more comfortable.

No pool, no restaurant access
Booked a room for two nights so our grandson could swim. Pool was closed for renovations. Lights didn’t work in first room, no maintenance working that night. No breakfast was available the next morning. The site boasts Olympic sized pool and restaurant for breakfast—a big nope for either. The front desk offered to cancel our reservation, but we were too tired to drive to another location that night.
