Horrible conditions property was under construction, materials everywhere, unfinished floors not blocked off were an accident waiting to happen. Black mold in the lobby. We cut our vacation short due to the unsafe conditions manager would not speak to us, no refund provided by the hotel, not even for the night we did not use. Expedia stepped up and offered a refund for the unused portion of our trip. I understand hotels being under construction but this needs to be disclosed and done in a safe manner. I would not recommend this property due to the unresponsiveness of the hotel and disregard for guest safety.

Renovations

It would have been good to know that the hotel was going through a major renovation before or after we booked our stay there.

This property is heavily under construction. I had no idea I was walking into a full construction site when I booked my room. I couldn’t believe they still are charging people full price. If I had known, I wouldn’t have booked there. Last year I stayed there and it was so lovely and this year it was an expensive mess. The breakfast was served in a temporary dark room shoved to the side with construction dust in the air so I skipped it. The AC was pretty much ineffective and my throat was irritated by all the dust. I’m frustrated I wasn’t warned beforehand and I was still charged full price.

It was a good hotel for staying the night before an early flight. The hotel transportation to the airport starts at 4am, our flight left at 4 so we were unable to use that. I’m sure the hotel would have been nicer but it was completely under construction. I wish we could’ve received a discount as the pool and lobby and snack services were unavailable. Room was clean.

We had no idea the pool was not open which was why we booked that hotel in the first place. I feel the property should have communicated that. The rooms were nice and customer service and breakfast were all great, but our family was really looking forward to going swimming.
