No early check in due to carpets being cleaned - not a problem as I was able to use the pool! The only issue was the carpet was still wet which made the room “muggy” and sheets felt damp.

The stay was not bad. The room was clean but could use some updating. The shower did not have much pressure. I called one day because the room was not cooling off. I was told someone would look at it but it never happened. Then the next day I went ti front desk to ask again and was told the same thing. No one ever came and looked at it. Overall the stay was not that bad.
