A Lot has Changed in 2 years
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/19/10
Last time we stayed at this hotel was two years ago. We went back because we had loved it the two times we had stayed previously. Not this time… this time it was the stay from hell. We were greeted with a horrible smell of body odor. All the halls, elevators and stair wells stunk. Thankfully the room did not smell. The kids and I got into our suits to go down and swim, but when we got to the pool it was green. Not only was it green, but with the underwater lights the water was literally yellow. The hot tub was one big layer of froth on top. You could smell the stuff before you even went through the doors. I can't imagine anyone swimming in that pool! When we arrived the manager did not give me any information or instructions, as a matter of fact he really didn't talk to me at all. He just dropped my room keys down on the counter and went back to whatever he was doing. Because of this I didn't have any instructions for the internet or amenities and had to keep coming down and asking. Finally he told me… "This is all on the sheet I gave you when you arrived." I informed him he never gave me anything, and he apologized and handed me the one sheet that had the information I needed. The information book in the room was out of date and the listings are all wrong (just another reason I got to walk downstairs). To add to our stay, the queen sofa pull out was the most uncomfortable bed I've ever slept on. My 10 year old son was supposed to sleep on it, but I heard him crying in bed at 11pm and asked what was wrong, and he told me he was being stuck in the back from the bed and couldn't sleep. I gave up my spot and took that horrid bed for two nights. Finally, our toilet clogged over and over… got to a point where my son and I would go to the lower level by the gym to go to the bathroom, my husband used the one by the breakfast and my daughter was putting her toilet paper in the trash can. I would rate this hotel 1 star: the breakfast was free and good, and the room really wasn't that bad if you don't have to sleep on the pull out bed or use the toilet!
