Disliked: Amenities
Rooms are "ok" - clean enough, they are the "outside door to your room" style which is not my favorite. What made me drop 2 stars.. I booked and prepaid via Expedia for 2 rooms, 1 night. My son got there before me and I had called to let the front desk know so he could get into his room. When I showed up, they assigned me to the same room so had to walk all the way back down to sort it out. The next morning, we were charged an extra "resort fee" on both rooms which they said was mandatory and not part of my booking. I inquired what it was for.. "things like access to bicycles". Ummm. ok. It was 40 degrees outside. I am not having to call them because they charged my son for the room. Would not stay here again - disorganized and I feel the "resort fee" was not transparent (not disclosed at check in and should have been part of my booking). Oh, and parking is extra.. so they do look for any chance to nickel and dime.

The staffs are friendly and the hotel is a family friendly. But room is not as good. We stayed in room 502 and paid extra $60 a night. The bottom of the ac unit is very dusty, the floor is very dirty, the toilet flush is broken, and the front door has a big gap around the frame that its letting the cold air coming in.
