The property appeared to be closed when we drove into parking area. The normal front doors and access to reception was fenced off, turns out it is under construction. We pulled into a parking spot and called on our cell phone. We were told by reception that the hotel was under construction, thus told us to drive around to the other side of the building, there should be a sign advising where we might enter. It was dark and raining, if not for car lights, you’d never see the sign. Once we entered this door, one walked about 200 feet and then found reception. The desk clerk was pleasant and explained what as going on. We finally got to our room, noticed ants running on the bathroom floor. I’ve stayed here before, was okay then, but not a good stay this time at this location. The beds were lovely and comfortable, nice linens. The toilet as old low version, needs to be updated. Closet door minus one door, plus off its track. There was shampoo & conditioner, plus bar soap, but no body lotion. The Kleenex box had only three Kleenex in the box, so had to use toilet paper to blow my nose. The breakfast was quite adequate, staff very friendly.
