The hotel should not be advertised as non smoking. Our room was so smoky that I felt nauseous and had a horrible headache. My daughter has asthma and the secondhand smoke impacts her safety. The front desk staff asked if I would like an air purifier for the room. We chose to leave after a few hours and me re cleaning the room at the hotel instead. The odor was saturated into the curtains and carpet. The king whirpool suite with river view would have been lovely if it were not smoky. My boyfriend's room on the second floor was worse. Clearly they are used to complaints if they offer air purifiers. I wiped the edges of the bathroom, entryway hard floor and the lysol wipes were black and lots of small hairs. I did not feel safe for my family using the pool area or workout space, mirrors covered in brown soot. If it were not for the smoke, the hotel was nice. Unfortunately, the cigarette smoke was enough to make this the worst hotel stay we have had. Having to spend an hour on the phone with expedia while at the zoo with young kids was not in my original plans. I am so disappointed that Expedia partners with this hotel.

We were running late because of being from out of town and they we going to cancel our rooms if we were after 9 pm. Second only a hot dog stand after 9, no room service. For wanting us to spend 239 a night its a joke.
