"We had a pleasant hotel stay overall, but we did find a dirty sock under one of the beds, and our room wasn't serviced during our 2-day stay. We had to go to the front desk for clean towels, and the used ones weren't picked up.2017-10-16"

"This was the worst hotel we've stayed in for a long time. Housekeeping was terrible; our room wasn't even serviced 4 of the 8 days we stayed. The hallway floor and elevator were wet from kids coming from the pool without drying off. The breakfast area was dirty and unsanitary; there was spilled food everywhere. Stay somewhere else.2017-10-03"
"The pool was nice and had a water slide, but the hotel was dark and the breakfast was horrible. Try somewhere else.2017-04-18"
