The pool area was nice except the hot tub wasn’t working- it was on but temperature was cold. Staff was very friendly upon check in.

Upon check-in, our bathroom had dirty towels hanging with snot and blood smeared on them. The countertops didn’t appear like they were wiped down.

Very clean. Wonderful location. Could use some updated appliances like washer, dryer and toilet seat. But overall very nice stay and I would stay again.

The hot tub wasn’t in service and I heard that’s been the case for a month. It was the main reason we booked at this hotel. That was a disappointment. There were no towels in the pool area, either; though the front desk attendant was quite helpful and gave us some.

The pool has great slides, but the water is really too cold! The rooms cabinets and doors needed to be wiped down better and the furniture is in need of an upgrade, desk chairs are worn, table chairs are dirty.

Cold room
My hotel room was cold. No heat coming out of heat register. Called to report the problem. Was told maintenance would come to my room but no one showed up. I had to go request another room because it was too cold in my room. Moved to another room at midnight due to no heat.

Great place but now you only get four pool wristbands per room I told the guy my Grandkids were coming to visit but he didn’t seem to care so next time I come to town I’ll have to try another place.

What i can do about it??
I had reserved a room for a very good friend of mine and she was unable to check in because she needed my actual physical card for them swipe at the front desk, and unfortunately i wasnt in town to do so. I reserved it in good thoughts of helping my very good friend of mine out because she lives out of town and i live in Bismarck so the room was not checked into and it was a nonrefundable room and i didnt pay the extra fee for insurance on the room its just frusturated about it

I liked the friendly check- in staff. She was very polite and helpful when we checked in around 9pm- even when my card did not work, and she reactivated them with a smile. What I did NOT like that room service called me right when I got in, offered room service food promotion, then called back to cancel the order due to kitchen issues- I had cranky kids. I did NOT like when after showering,I pulled back the sheets at 11pm to see blood spots (not stains- they were not washed brown) on the sheets of one queen bed, and body hair on the other bed in multiple places. I did NOT like the bathroom door had bandaids with names sharpied on them on the top of the door- his an hers- I did NOT like no one answered room service call and I had to ask a maintenance worker who happened to walk by for some sheets to change the bedding myself, since my kids were tired and cranky and needed rest. I will not be staying here again- this is literally the first negative review I've left a hotel.

I had booked reservations through Expedia. When arrived (mind you this was 7:30 p.m) we were in line for 50 minutes, we second in line. We were told that our room was not cleaned and wasn’t going to be. I kindly asked to talk to the manager and she wouldn’t. Said well then you need to give me a refund! It has been a week and I can’t get a response from the hotel or Expedia!!

The lady working at the front desk was awesome. The pool are and hot tub were beyond disgusting and should not uave been open in that state. My card has been charged 4 times the amount of room. 4 days in a row and i still cant get a manager to fix it. Asked to speak to owner and was told no. A housekeeper was arrested in front of my kids and i for meth use on the premises. We had to clean the bathroom on arrival. Not awesome at all. All this stress on Christmas and we cant even get a manager to fix anything

Very disappointed
There were no towels for the kids to swim. The vent on the ceiling in the bathroom was disgusting. There were no cups in the room. This was a suite and there was one spoon and one fork in the drawer. There were no cups to drink from. There were 2 decaf coffees to make, no regular. The breakfast was aweful. When we got there, there was still an hour left and there were 4 dried out muffins left, no coffee, the juice was water. The elevators were not clean at all. The TV in our room for that size was pretty small.
