    We enjoyed our stay. Pool was heated, and the hot tub was working great. Showers worked fine. Beds were comfortable and quiet. Hotel was clean. Saw someone cleaning the pool area after it had closed for the night. Lost a star for being pet-friendly. Domestic animals do not belong in a hotel. If you can't live without your little furbaby go see a psychiatrist. Hotels shouldn't be pandering to these types of people. Lost another star for the elevator situation. You can't access the stairs from the ground floor, so you and every single other guest are forced to use the elevators. Try to imagine an entire hotel population trying to use two little elevators. It was excruciating. Even weirder than that, the stairs themselves had signs posted all over them documenting the health benefits of climbing staircases, which we would have LOVED to do, but you simply can't in this building. Terrible design of a building.

    Great stay. This is our second stay here, and we are always happy with the rooms, the breakfast and most importantly, the staff. Lavonna in the kitchen is amazing and goes above and beyond. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion in the bathrooms so no need to unpack yours. Lovely views.
