Without notice staff entered our suite. We knew because we heard staff in the hall mention our room. I asked them what was going on and they said they were replacing pullout mattresses. I went and told the desk that I didn’t want staff to go in. Our items were all over the suite. Her blunt response was “not an option”. I said it was intrusive and repeated no one should enter. She half laughed and said “Not a choice”. I repeated my issue to the manager at checkout. She said that she had been off but that we “should have got a notice” and there “should have been a sign on the desk”. She looked around the desk and could not find one. She offered a half apology and said she was going to be talking to her staff.

It was OKK. Don’t know why people rated it so highly. Doors into hotel were wide open. No body wash. No sheets for pull out couch which was also crazy uncomfortable.

Excellent stay
Spacious, comfortable room. Clean and well chlorinated outdoor pool with towels. Had badminton and basketball court on site (and cornhole equipment). Unique and quality items on breakfast bar. Friendly and customer service oriented staff. Small workout room however had free weights, treadmills and filtered water. Certainly will stay here again.

I was pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a 2 bedroom suite. Unfortunately, the bathroom was dirty. There was hair on bathtub and on vanity . Worse part was that there was dried urine on the bottom of the toilet. I was there only one night. Breakfast was nice . Would not stay there again.

Short get away
We had a good experience. 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms were great for 3 adults. Room was clean, beds were comfortable. We had plenty of towels. The swimming pool was nice and towels were provided in the pool area. Breakfast was sufficient. The only issue was a slight odor in the room. It wasn't so bad that we felt like we needed to ask for a new room. I suspect it might have been from a pet previously in the room. They are a pet friendly hotel. I did mention it at check out so that they could try to get rid of the smell for future guests. In spite of that, I would stay again. It's in a great location and central to what we wanted to do.

Its was olay. We were never alerted that they were going to be cleaning the carpets. Kind of bug us that they went in our room and moved things off of the floor. A little warning would have been nice. We could have picked up ourselves.
