I paid extra for this hotel, thinking it would provide a decent experience for my family. Unfortunately, that couldn’t have been further from the truth.
The pool water was so cold it felt like a polar plunge—not exactly the family-friendly fun we were expecting. While we were there, a group of young adults hung around the pool area, not swimming but being excessively loud, smoking pot, and using inappropriate language in front of my kids.
The room offered no respite. The air unit had two settings: extremely loud or “somewhat quiet” with a constant noise like tinfoil flapping on a flagpole. Attempts to reach staff were futile; they were either on the phone or completely absent.
When we returned later that evening, the entire building smelled like a dispensary. The third floor was especially bad, with a skunk/wet carpet odor that lingered all night, adding to the headache induced by the noisy air unit.
To top it all off, the area surrounding the hotel wasn’t much better. Just down the street, a half-naked man carrying a bucket was putting on a show, attempting what can only be described as trying to lick his own eyebrows.
Between the polar plunge pool, the dispensary vibes, and the bizarre street performers, this was a miserable experience. Not worth the price and definitely not family-friendly.
