Terrible stay

I will never stay here again. Rooms and location of room felt stale and unsafe. I ended up leaving early due to unpleasant disturbance I overheard with another guest.

I had no idea it was an open construction site- piles of ruble everywhere, taped off entry to pool, no one working at the pool, no drinks or food. A/C rattled and was loud but at least it worked. Random mini fridge on the floor- just very disappointing!

The staff was GREAT!! However very disappointed with the room. The tub was not clean. And, we booked a room with patio and walk out to the pool specifically splurging for our anniversary. When we arrived, there was a construction fence blocking the patio and pool. It was about a foot away from the glass doors so you couldn’t even see outside! They were very accommodating about moving us to another room the next day. But very disappointed.

We loved the fact that the company clearly wants to fix up the facility and that they are updating a "vintage" building, style. However, this was a total party place. A DJ was cranked on full volume from 12-5 with sing alongs in the pool and yellow pool water. Loud and gross are the words that come to mind. I would not recommend this place unless you are looking for these specific things.
