Ok for a short stay

Stayed for one night with family. Didn’t find check in process particularly friendly, and were sent initially to a room that was out of service. Breakfast pancake machine was not working. However my kids loved the pool and the bedroom was very comfortable.

The property is undergoing renovation. I was not told by Expedia at the time of reservation. The hallways were wet and very dusty. There was an unusual smell in the hallways. We were assigned a room near the renovation.

Second time we stay at this hotel and the kids love it! Good location, good continental breakfast. Had a small issue on the bill and even though I showed the front desk agent what I should have been paying on here, she just brushed it off and said oh well. Other than that, we had a lovely stay
