When we checked in the gyluy was very rude. We had presents for my daughter, he kept telling us we couldnt throw a party there, we just stayed the night to celebrate it being her bday. We didnt invite people there. Bugs in the room. I was told the pool was closing at 8 due to a light. Left the pool to find people still swimming it stayed open until a storm had them close it. The power went out or something. I could not order food. After walking down there and waiting. They said system and phone down too. Had to order walk back then go back and pick up. Was over cooked and steak not well done. Workers unfriendly. Noticed a roach and who knows what else. Took photos. Only nice person was the young man at the desk at check out time. Unfriendly not wanted feeling. Couldnt wait to leave, wont stay again. People in the area have parties there doesnt mean we were. Just us and the kids for a night of movies and pool. Cant rent movies or anything either

I loved the decor in this hotel. It was luxury at an affordable price. Staff was professional and kind. The only downside was the that it was pretty noisy. You could hear other people walk around their rooms. The pool was beautiful. I attended for a conference and the conference rooms were good and the food served was tasty. Highly recommend this hotel.
