8.6/10 Excellent! (790 reviews)
They put us on the 1st floor viewing a wall. The room was dark when we arrived. No welcome note. No lights turned on and it smelled like damp rugs. Mind you we paid $850 per night. The sheets had stains, the towels were white at one point, but now a dirty grey color. The room is dated and the tub is from the 80’s. The vent in the bathroom was filthy dirt covered in dust. The shower head was covered in white calcium hard water. The only redeeming quality was the bed was comfortable. I would 100 % put this properly on the “Don’t Bother” list. Beyond disappointed. Barely a three star.

8/10 Very good! (1,613 reviews)
Hotel has a very handy location. Grounds are beautiful. Pool was being renovated. Room was nice but all service was terrible. After two days we asked for clean linens but none arrived . We had to ask again and the front desk guy finally brought them in at night. After three days, we asked for our room to be cleaned but nothing happened. It felt like once you checked in, you were on your own.
