This property was under a major renovation, which was noted when I booked, thus the 4 star. We were on 2nd floor which most of which was complete. Our room was very nice, all new everything. Bed was comfortable, very clean, no noise from construction. The breakfast was continental as construction did allow for full hot breakfast. No problem for us.

I chose this hotel to take my grandchildren on a getaway and because there is a swim pool. Turns out the pool heater was broken and the pool was very very cold! We weren’t informed about that until we checked in. Then at between 5:30-6:00 am the fire alarm went off. The desk people didn’t know what to do. We were told not to evacuate. But with the alarm kept going off everyone was awake and up. So that ended any kind of relaxing vacation. On the upside, breakfast was fine.
