Okay stay
We booked this hotel for the free breakfast and indoor pool. They closed the pancakes 30 minutes early and the pool was freezing. This was disappointing. The room was also oddly dark. Our key kept deactivating and we had to keep resetting it. But overall, the stay was fine and the room was spacious and comfortable.

Stayed 2 nights with my 3 young children. Everything was good about our stay except the pool at this particular hotel. Why offer a pool if its only at a consistent 72 degrees for the duration of our stay? Otherwise, we had stayed at this hotel before and all was well.

Was surprised to see rust around the sink drain in the bathroom and major chip out of tub. Small chair in corner matched with smaller table. Just seemed strange...

We arrived to check in for a wedding and was told they were oversold and our room we already paid for was not available. Nobody called to notify us ahead of time, and the employee at the front desk could care less. He was rude and not apologetic, and didn't help or try to assist in any way. We had to drive over 30 minutes to get to another hotel. We should have read the reviews and never booked this hotel, it seems like it is common practice for them to not care about their customers reservations and oversell the hotel. Awful all around.

Overall, the stay was good. The room was modern and clean. The morning breakfast was better than expected. Great selection every day and very clean. The only disappointment was the daily shower. The water temperature was up and down during your shower. Several times it went completely cold mid shampoo.

We stayed 2 nights. First night was great, the second night I walked into my room around 11pm my room was freezing, so I went to turn on the heat and it wasn’t working. I contacted the front desk with no answer. So my husband and I showered to try to warm up. Try to stick it out but it was too cold. So one hour later went to the front desk. No one was there for quite some time so my husband and I left and drove all the way home.
