The rooms do not have usb outlets to support charging your devices. Small things like this really do matter in this day and age. Also, one of the two elevators was out of service the entire time we were there. This caused for long wait times to get back to our room or down to the lobby.

Room wasn’t ready for check in time at 3, after I called to ask if we could check in early and was told yes. Then the pool was out of service and that was why we booked here. And it had a funky smell in the lobby. Maybe from a pond located there. Didn’t stay. Booked elsewhere.
