Liked: Staff & service, amenities

The main lobby and pool were all absolutely gorgeous - clean and updated. The rooms were much less so. Our bathroom was TINY, there were leaves on one of the pillows when we arrived, the first-floor balcony floor was filthy with dead bugs. The guest rooms need to be updated to keep up with the public areas.

No free breakfast with room stay. Front desk area not readily visible. Area could have better lighting for visibility. Attended a catered function at hotel and found the meal was way below par. Chicken was extremely overcooked and had too much thyme seasoning.
