When we arrived at 4:15 pm they did not have room read yet for us and the three kids. This was inconvenient to say the least. We were given a room to store everything. Lots of debris and construction. Bathrooms limited. We decided to use the pool facility which was incomplete due to renovation but overall it was a nice above average pool. Rooms were finally ready and adequate for our needs.

The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The hotel is under renovation so the dining was very limited. I felt the breakfast was too expensive so we didnt partake. All you can eat is not something we needed. The hotel accommodations were clean, roomy and very sound proof. Upon entering the hotel , it smelled very pleasant.

Property was in a nice location, they had a shuttle that would transport you to nearby restaurants and bars. Parking was free and convenient. Customer service was great. Room was clean for the most part. Tub had mold around the top. Beds were ok, water in the shower was nice and hot. Pool was icky. There was a thick white substance floating at the top when we were planning to use it, we notified the front desk, then left to get food. About an hour later we returned to the same white substance floating in the pool. The hotel itself was a little rundown on the inside. Definitely was not worth the 1300$ I paid for 4 nights.

My husband and I arrived at 6:30 am and check in is not until 3pm. We were so tired from flying international that we took the chance in asking if they would allow us to check in early. The gentleman was so nice that he did not hesitate to provide our needs. He immediately looked for a room and we were able to rest for the day. They are in the middle of renovation and the floor they assigned us was a mess, but we were able to sleep and rest. thank you for allowing us to check in early.

The hotel is being renovated and expedia was informed per the hotel but did not mentioned on the website. Nb restaurant or bar and terrible odor from the construction. The room was very dated with srains on the furniture. The shuttle took 45 minutes from the airport and ubers cannot find the location. So happy to leave. Staff were pleasant but mentioned that "systems" were down and had trouble finding reservations.
