Apparently it’s on their website that the pool isn’t available but I don’t see that through Expedia so that was the main reason we booked here. The rooms are older and smaller . Heater / air didn’t work in our room when we arrived 45 minutes early and tried to check in . If we wanted a working room we had to wait but we have 4 kids under 8 year old so that was unfortunate.

The room was great very clean. I just didn’t like all the tweekers outside when I first was checking in. One of them approached my boyfriend’s daughter which is only 15 years old. Then he signaled out to some other guys that were riding around on bikes. Once we got inside it was nice. But it was the whole walking inside to the property that was not a good experience.

The area was good. But my room was not ready by check in time I had to wait for a while. Lady seem nice when I was in line and everyone was getting checked in of course a lot of them where members and it all went smooth for other guest as soon as she asked if I was a member with the IHG hotels I said no she like your room is not ready I was like okay do you need my name or something to check before you even tell me my room is not ready. She’s like oh yeah so I gave her my information and she still said it wasn’t ready. The check in was the issue and the person helping in the front desk other then that everything was good.
