"Loved the restaurant and bar next door. There was a huge wet spot on the carpet in my room next to the air conditioner. I notified the hotel and they took care of it but left behind 2 air filters next to the TV. My room did not smell good."

"The outdoor pool was a wonderful amenity. Front desk midnight shift Guest Services agent was rude and disrespectful. All he had to say was to insert our credit card for the deposit. He claimed and presumed it would not go through."
