Expedia demonstrated on their site a beautiful hotel with great amenities….all falsely advertised for this hotel. They had it rated as a 8 star hotel! The pool is shared with Embassy suites and so is everything else. When getting to the hotel there was no light posts on. When we entered the hotel it had buckets and towels on the floor. Wet spots with no caution signs. Check in was ok but when we went towards the elevator there were cracked tile and the elevator was outdated. Going down the hallway to the room the smell of marijuana lingered in the air. They had outdated tile carpet all dirty. Upon entering the room the same outdated carpet tile was in the room filthy and stained as well and the sofa bed. Sofa had a large huge stain and the room smelled of mold. Walking into the bathroom the shower was dirty and had cracked tile and gunk all over. The furniture and appliances all outdated and not what we paid for nor expected. It was definitely NOT an 8 star rating hotel! When we went down to complain they told us they had issues with Expedia because of their site. The hotel offered to the “deluxe” room which was a little better but still on the same floor with the marijuana smell.The very next day the entire hotel received a letter stating that there will be no electricity nor water for the whole day!!! When we called Expedia to complain and for them to cancel we could not get in touch with any representative only Ai. Ai did not allow for cancellation.

Everything expected to go wrong it did. The bed was too hard I’m in pain right now. Broken thermostat the refrigerator with too high. It froze our bottles of water in a second. Torn carpet, tub didn’t look clean. Underneath the bed all torn up. Some of the front desk, people were kind of rude and professional. I hope they give me $150 deposit back. I got pictures of the room this room says this place is nasty and the really outside of the balcony the really look like it would break if pushed a little hard. I couldn’t believe how that hotel look pictures the justice for that hotel because it didn’t look nothing like the pictures and it’s next to a beautiful embassy suite. I don’t even know why they put that hotel next to it because the Embassy suites look bad. The pool area was nice. Workers made so much noise woke us up in the morning banging. Right next-door a family with a BABY! We had to call security to stop the noises the wall was so thin it’s ridiculous. I don’t know why they called it a vacation club. Couldn’t really vacation there. There was no cafe, snack bar the ice cream had frost bite on it just like the refrigerator had it in our room. If I’m not mistaken I bet they’ll try to say something I did to the room to keep my $150 security deposit. DO NOT STAY THERE!

BEWARE!!!! NO ELECTRICITY AND BLACK MOLD! I checked in and checked out within an hour! They dont tell you until you arrive that they have NO ELECTRICITY, NO RUNNING WATER AND BLACK MOLD THROUGHOUT THE PROPERTY! I needed to Pay for another hotel and rent a car because we were stranded. PLEASE DO NOT RISK YOUR CHILDRENS HEALTH OR YOUR OWN! The front desk was flooded with people checking out and asking for refunds all at the same time that I was. The price was low so I thought maybe I got lucky but now I see why! Its a scam, its unsafe and they lie at the desk to get your credit card. Don't do it!! If you stay here you're crazy!!

The room was old, carpet in poor shape. Overall the facility was dank. Multiple power outages. Scheduled 5 hour power and water outage turned into over 6. Lots of construction inside and outside. No change of room towels for multiple days. Advertised the desk was open 24/7 yet was closed when we checked out. No refund when we checked out early. Would not recommend.

Travels for my bday trip Jan 22. This places needs a serious update. Upon arriving we were informed that they would be no electricity for over 8 hours. There was no compensation or anything. The rooms are old. Carpets dirty and smells moldy. There were stains on the carpet. There was visable mold in the ceiling which they keep trying to paint over and mold in the hallways in the ceiling. The customer service was even more horrible 10/10 DONT RECOMMEND

This the good, the bad and the ugly. Spoiler alert, there's no ugly. Let's start with the good. Amenities, room and staff (front desk) no complaints. The place is beautiful and well maintained, with the exception of the pool bar that was being remodeled and it was closed but there was service available on the side. Why 3 stars? Because the room was not setup to hotels standards. Something basic like like hand towels and wash clothes were not avaliable. We have to request them, also when the room was serviced, the bath mat was taken and not replaced. Towels were not replaced this is Something basic that creates inconveniences. We had a good stay and I would give it a 4 stars if it wasn't a basic hotel standard problem.

No previous notice that the pool restaurant/bar was under construction. On top of that, no notice at registration that there were scheduled power outrage for Tuesday and Wednesday. The facilities had no backup power for building, elevators, pool or jacuzzi. Not even the ATH machine was working in the afternoon to pay for drinks. No backup lights in the stairs either. The pool was filthy by Tuesday afternoon. Power came back Tuesday at 430pm when they keep saying it was going to be back at 2pm. A hotel without backup power is definitely not a way to go. At this we were told that the next day, Wednesday there was another scheduled maintenance power outrage up to noon and decided to check out. My nephew with multiple disabilities had to go down 4 flights of stairs without light just with the help of a cell phone of another tourist.

We didn’t have power 3 out of the 5 days we were there and had to carry our things up and down the stairs because no elevator, which is a big safety issue for us. We were not able to use the bathroom to brush our teeth or shower before traveling because no water. We had groceries in the fridge that were not staying cold enough in the fridge because of the power. The handle to the balcony door broke because it was dry rotted. My biggest issue is that our door did not latch well and after room service cleaned our room, we came back and our kindle was missing. When I emailed the hotel they replied with being “pleased to inform you we are renovating” and completely neglected my concerns.
