the pool is great for families. the hotel provides locked parking, a very reassuring feature. the locked parking gives me peace of mind (safety is always a concern).

mixed feelings on stay

tiny gymhomeless people
the gym, they said, was tiny. i looked all over for it. supposedly, it included one treadmill. my husband wanted a good run around the lake instead, but he says it became a homeless person convention under the bridge. he turned back so fast, it's a wonder he didn't trip.

the location near the tram was convenient. it made getting around easy.
the air conditioning barely worked during a heatwave. the shower drain was completely clogged, so the water pooled around my feet. it wasn't a relaxing experience, and i definitely expected more.
