Nice, but slightly annoying

The hotel common areas and rooms were clean and nice. Desk Attendant was super nice and knowledgeable. The only complaint we have is the beds were horribly uncomfortable. Oh, one of the 2 elevators in the whole building was broken and wait times were ridiculous.

Lazy river disappointed

The entire reason i booked this hotel was for the lazy river but there are only 3 child size floats. I was told they were either broken or being repaired. Very disappointed. The water pressure also has very little to be desired. It is pet friendly and for the most part clean.
