The man at the front desk was kind enough to let me stay, despite my credit cards going through, and that was no small kindness. However, he also went on a lengthy tirade before insulting me. Between that, the damp carpet, and the pool that I don’t think was happening, it put a damper on the trip.

Check in was fast no wait but hit a snag as the first room we were given was not cleaned. Beds were unmade trash not removed so housekeeping had not cleaned that room. Called front desk and they put us in another room. Other room was cleaned beds made but bathroom had invaded wall paint in the bathroom coming off and also in the second room we had in the family suite. Bathroom was missing a light bulb and only one tv remote for two TVs that the room had. It was only a one night stay but don’t think we would stay again as it seems that the property needs some updating and possibly better customer service as the front desk clerk was very short and responded to questions as if checking in was inconvenience to him.
