The clerk that checked me in was very, very rude. There was a guy asking for information, she was very rude and not helpful to him. Next some one called from upstairs asking questions about the room. The clerk literally answered every single question with “I don’t know” 10 x’s. Then it was my turn to check in. She was so focused on her FaceTime call on her personal cell phone, that she couldn’t focus on her job. I will never return to that location.

We were only coming here for one night so our son could go swimming. At no point did anyone tell us that the pool was closed off. And they told us that they were not in a rush to get the pool fixed because it is February, which seems strange, I would imagine people would come more in the winter to use the pool. We checked out immediately and got a room at a different hotel. But the room wasn’t dirty besides one table not being wiped off and being covered in salt.

Not worth the price
When you buy a more expensive room you expect better quality I would have been better $75 room across the street. I paid almost $200 for a dirty room

Checking in was very slow. Had to get more things for the pull out bed. We had drove all day and was tired so we didn't go to the pool the same day as check in. We did try to swim later on but was so full couldn't get in. So the sign said opens 7a the next day we got up early and to go swimmimg to find out it don't up til 11a which is check out! How un fair is that when you literally couldn't swim the same day and then next day you couldn't. I had a little one very un happy about it. I think it should be open the next morning to be able to swim especially when you couldn't the same day when it's full! Breakfast was cold and not many options.

This property is pass terrible. They called us the day of our visit to tell us the pool was closed for our entire Holiday visit. We arrived at 830pm to check in and had No clean towels in our room. They never had anything for breakfast except yougurt when they advertise a full breakfast. The front desk personnel never knew what was going on and we literally had to get a new key every time we left our room. Please take the word Best and Plus out of your title because clearly we living in the wild west. Just call it THE WESTERN. Then its one of the most expensive rooms in the area. The bathroom was leaking and had water stains all down the wall. I want my damn money back. I would've been better off sleeping in a tent. If I could give negative stars I would. Will NEVER BOOK HERE AGAIN and if you thinking you should DON'T!!!!!
