After the first night stay, our room was not serviced; bed not made, no clean towels, room not picked up. After notifying front desk, the bed was made and clean towels were supplied. After the second night, the room again was not serviced, and we were told the housekeeping staff had left for the day. Someone was sent to the room and “made” the bed like my 5 year old great grandson does; the covers were thrown up on the bed.

The hotel only had one elevator it took for ever to get anywhere. It was a super busy weekend too. I am oxygen there was no way I was going up and down 6 flights of stairs. The hotel is not really handicapped friendly. Needs to be updated my room smelled musty. I found out when I got there the elevator has been broken for months. It’s a super pricey hotel for the elevators to be broken. The breakfast was good and the pool is nice. Overall I give this hotel a 5 out of 10

The hotel needs improvements in the pool area and rooms. Additionally, the parking structure is unsafe, far from the property, and charges $50 per day for parking.

The lobby area is beautiful, although the rooms could use some work. It was dirty in some areas and the room had a strong musty smell that we never got used to. We didn't have enough shampoo and conditioner for the 1 night we stayed. The breakfast was amazing, probably the best hotel included breakfast we've ever had. The made to order omelets was a nice touch. Conveniently located for walking around to shop, dine, and watch the bats at dusk.

The stay was great. We loved the location and the staff was excellent. A few things could use updating, but none of that negatively impacted our stay.
