Over all it was a good stay. But some of our towels were dirty upon arrival. Just noticed that there was need for some updating. Dirty/missing or discolored caulk in the shower and just over all wear and tear in the furniture.

It was check in process that was horrible as Expedia reservation (paid for) was not at the hotel. The staff worked on correcting the problem, only to have the same thing happen at noon the next day with no resolution from Expedia. Had to pay higher rate when locked out of room. Had delay of activities and reservation both days due to this inconvenience by Expedia. Hotel was accommodating to our needs.
