This is an older property that has been pretty well maintained although there were a couple of minor issues. The main things have to do with housekeeping. We stayed 2 nights and did not get maid service at all. We saw the maid in the hallway after a long day of activities and asked about some fresh towels for the room. We were told that we needed to get them from the front desk. Very strange and annoying.
