If you want to be treated poorly come here. Staff allow their friends to visit unpaid and run a muck in the pool area. Management are defensive and offer you no help or solution. Our key was deactivated whilst we were In the pool area and were locked in the fire staircase with our kids, managements response was you should push the fire doors open, no apologies nothing. Stay away. The pool is also a dungeon in the basement and is horrid.
the stay was pleasant enough, when now three months later awaiting for the “hold” of $100 for the room we booked - never received the hold back only for it to mysteriously disappear from my bank statements - when you go to ask reception and management about how to acquire said $100 back they couldn’t be more unhelpful with the rehearsed lines of “contact your financial institution” where you’re questioned by them if it ever was taken out in the first place - if you want to be extorted out of your money this place is the way to go! Don’t expect any of it back or help either.
