The rooms have a very unpleasant odor, which everyone in our party experienced in the 5 rooms we reserved for the weekend. Our room was particularly disagreeable because one of my pillows smelled like sewage. The hotel uses duck feather pillows; if laundry doesn't dry it thoroughly, it can emit an odor. I never got over how bad it smelled and felt uncomfortable in our room. I can't help but think that someone knew the room smelled bad because the window to our room was open when we arrived on a 95-degree day. The coffee packets in our room were wrong and didn't fit in the coffee machine, but it didn't matter because it wouldn't turn on anyway. The coffee container was empty when we went to get coffee from the lobby. We never received housekeeping service. There were a lot of kids at the hotel for a baseball tourney, and they took over the pool and ran the hallways at all hours. My daughter and her husband were unable to relax by the pool because of the kids. That same daughter was in room 130, dealing with noise from laundry service on one side and the pool on the other. One day, the water was shut off at 10:30 AM for several hours. On checkout, I wanted to use the bathroom lobby but couldn't because the housekeeper told me there was a problem with the toilet. I did have a pleasant phone call with Lavinzia, the manager, when I called ahead to see if we could check in early (which we did). She also checked us in when the initial clerk couldn't find our reservation and was very pleasant and professional. We also had a positive experience with the front desk clerk to whom we returned our pillow. She delivered another to our room, and apologized. If you want a peaceful vacation, avoid this hotel in early July because of LOTS of kids who are up all hours, and avoid rooms on the first floor (130-135) sandwiched between laundry and the pool.
