We may have had a one time experience, morning front desk crew was excellent however the night crewleft alot to be desired. At $190 a night i expected better. For one, cleaner towels initially(2 were dirty) and when asking for towels i expect at least 4 for a family of 4 not 3. Fridge was sticky with i assume pop. Hot tub and shower needed repairs as they barely worked, singular change room, pool is ok but only 5 ft deep at most and small enough you get splashed if anyone uses the water slide. Towels at the pool are in a ratio of 1 per 5 guests and when asking for towels it takes up to 2 hours for less than 1/4 of what you need if they even show up. Door didnt close properly but sounded like it locked so always give it a pull/push when they close. We had no soap in the bathroom instead we had two small bottles of conditioner the first day and a bottle of shampoo and conditioner the second. The beds were comfy and made daily. Breakfast included was good except the other patrons who would nearly bowl you over to get to the bacon tray regardless of whether or not you were in line (comical but rude) food had a good selection for a complimentary but the attendant had no idea what the ingredients were nor allowed us to even see a package to discerne(understandable), coffe was good. Close to transit if you werent driving. Again, the morning staff on checkout were amazing(didnt catch their names unfortunately)

This property has been recently renovated and is very clean and modern. The rooms are spacious, bed and pillows are comfortable, A/C works well, shower and bathroom are spacious too. My only complaint is the A/C is a little loud and because of the location so close to McLeod Tr there is road noise. The location is close to amenities like restaurants, shopping etc. The staff were very friendly and when I discovered my key wasn’t working, one staff member let me into my room and went and got me 2 new keys, then made sure they both worked before he left. I didn’t have the breakfast or use the pool area so no comment on those. But over all it was a very pleasant stay and the staff make you feel valued.

Hotel was clean, staff was great, and rooms were quite large, however the lack of air conditioning in all the common spaces was a problem. Especially the breakfast room, it was too hot to even eat in there. Also, hotel pools should be for hotel guests, not swimming lessons for the public.

When we first checked in our room smelled like really strong cleaning products. We figured it had just been cleaned so we settled in and unpacked. By the next morning the air freshener smell had worn off and the room smelled like second hand smoke. Can’t believe they’d put a family with children in a room that had been smoked in. Food was constantly running out for breakfast with bacon being almost impossible to get. Pancake machine was malfunctioning and/or out of order all 3 mornings. They even ran out of coffee on our last morning. There were never towels available when we got out of the pool so we had to walk dripping wet back to our room every time. Family above us had a child running around stomping past midnight and again at 6am. We called the front desk but nothing was done. Do NOT recommend staying here.
