2/5 Poor

Travelled with family
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
I would not recommend this hotel. Location was excellent, but service and amenities were below par. Pool was provided to a private party and left unusable afterwards. We also did not receive our VIP awards because the front desk said they were all out. Our room was just ok. Some of the fixtures In the room were partially damaged. Our friends stayed at the Omni across the street and had a much better experience.
