Good location
The hotel was very convenient to the interstate and in a location near shops and restaurants. I was surprised and pleased when the cleaning staff moved their cart so that we could past them. It was a first and very considerate. It was also unexpected but appreciated that they would fill your water bottle and add ice at the bar as you left. Nice touches of good customer service.

The pool was terribly dirty !!! Reported to staff the assistant chief executive at Hyatt and was told that usually corporate people stay there during there during the week and don’t use the pool and on the weekends a lot of sports teams stay so since my family stayed on a Tues . That was the reason the pool was FULL of a nasty green slime that looked like it hadn’t had chemicals in 6 months !!! Would never stay at another Hyatt again !!! If you have any problems, they will not make it right . And will come up with terrible reasons like this ….. terrible and someone like this is whom they put in charge !!!
