Old, Dated, and Dirty

Pros: Close to airport and easy parking.
Cons: The property needs a complete update.
Location: Lots of restaurants within walking distance
This hotel is OK for a quick overnight stay if arriving late or departing the city early however don't expect too much for your money. The room I had the cloth sofa was stained and dirty as well as the carpet, the taps in the shower leaked, and overall the place had seen better days. It's easy to tell there has been a lot of use and it is past time for an update. In my view it was way overpriced.

Nice hotel with indoor pool. Good condition. Only thing to complain is that there is no real crib and play pen is too small and the bitten is not flat. Anything else are pretty good. Recommend.

We booked this hotel for the pool and slide...

Pros: The pool with slide. Comfy bed. Chop restaurant in hotel was great for dinner however the breakfast 'buffet' was cold/limited and SO not worth it.
Cons: Cleanliness. There was toothpaste on the hairdryer and a used razor on shelf in bathroom. Elevator floor was filthy. Hot tub - ewww.
Our stay was ok but overall disappointing. We arrived an hour after check-in and our room wasn't ready. We had booked a room with a 'view' knowing our daughter would enjoy this and this trip was to celebrate her birthday. We were offered a 2nd floor room with a King bed and pullout couch (instead of the 2 queens we had booked). We were anxious to get settled in so we accepted. After 10 minutes of waiting the staff member was then pulled aside by his manager and we were given our original room. The hotel is definitely older. The decor has been updated but it still feels/smells old. The A/C didn't work and there is no bathroom fan. It was hot. We were given a fan and told they would try to move us. I called the desk when we arrived back from exploring the city at 10pm and of course there was no other room available. The pool was okay. Smaller than pictures appeared and not very clean appearing but our daughter enjoyed the slide.

Dated but comfortable resort hotel

Pros: The room size and cleanliness, glass/porcelain glasses and mugs in the room, patio in the room.
Cons: An alternative to the breakfast buffet for breakfast, update the decor.
Location: Easily accessible by the main highway and there were several eateries and shops nearby. Easily accessible from the airport.
Hotel was easily accessible. Rooms were clean and comfortable, although decor was a bit dated. This hotel tries to be a resort and has several pools and restaurants. Breakfast at the restaurant was pricey for the buffet that was provided ($20 ea). Room had a patio which we enjoyed, although it overlooked a parking lot and a residential area. Overall good value for the price.

Not an overly welcoming atmosphere. Restaurant options limited and in house restaurant not family friendly. Very clean and free wi fi a plus. Free shuttle service to the airport.
