I have never been treated so rudely by a front desk staff person. The worker didn’t look up from the computer and paper he was looking at nor did he greet me or say “just one moment”. After standing right in front of him for a minute or two I walked out and contemplated going to another hotel. I walked back in and he slowly stapled papers for another 30 seconds before saying “checking in?” He still didn’t greet me and never said thank you or anything. He was so rude and unfriendly. Not typical for hotel staff.

Staff was very friendly, room was average our only disappointment was, our understanding from Expedia website was that we thought the room we booked was with a "Lake View". It was NOT, we got a real great view of the parking lot. Not to mention the room was considerably cheaper, by the day we actually checked in, so nothing like adding insult to injury, No view and we paid more!!!!
