We enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and comfortable. It was nice to come home at the end of a day of visiting to freshly made beds and clean towels. Something that is lacking is an outdoor area to sit and have breakfast. The breakfast room is a bit stuffy, loud and crowded when the hotel is full. Nonetheless, the continental breakfast is quite generous and filling. Sorry that they ran out of muffins, fruit and yogurt by Saturday. I would also have liked the pool area open earlier than 9:00. Lastly, should you leave your room and forget the key inside it is really a hassle to get another key if you’re not on the reservation. My husband felt very uncomfortable having to prove that he was staying in the room when he went to the hot tub and realized he had left his key inside the room. In the future, it’s important that everyone’s name be on the reservation.
