Pool was cold, hot tub wasn’t hot, no water pressure in the shower, but surprisingly scalding hot water. Overall it was clean and comfortable. Very average hotel. Probably would not stay again.

Hotel needs to be updated. Need Plugs at beds. Better lighting. Bathrooms need to be redone. Chips in tub with rust coming through. Families should be housed in separate area so business people can get sleep.

Worst stay in US so far!
Hotel smelt like an ashtray, everywhere... from the lobby to the lifts, bedrooms to the gym and pool.... unfreindly and rude staff especially reception. I wont be going back there, plenty of other hotels in the area with better facilities, decor and cleanliness

Check-in was easy and the room was great. It could’ve been cleaned a little better as we found some hair in our jacuzzi tub and a cigarette butt on the floor.
