I booked the wrong dates by accident and immediately caught my mistake, I contacted Expedia by their chat since no phone number was provided and tried to change the date to right one but they wanted to charge me double the rate. I called the property itself to get their help but was told it had to be done through Expedia so I attempted again to get in touch with an actual person only to be told through chat again that I’d have to call the property, I called them again and was told they couldn’t do anything since it was booked through Expedia. I tried to request cancellation and to get my money back since no one wanted to help me, they said they sent a message to the property directly and would let me know in 24hours and then at that 24hrs they sent text saying no answer and to allow it another 72 hours and I never heard another thing from anyone. At first, I planned to stay there on the correct date but because no one would help me fix my error I booked somewhere else close and lost over $225 dollars for a honest mistake, though yes, it was my mistake, someone should have been able to help me and not charge me double the rate I had already paid. Very disappointing experience with Expedia and this property. I’ll never book anything through Expedia again.

Outstanding but noisy AC
Outstanding with 1 exception. The AC in our room was very noisy. Every time it came on, it sounded like a small plane was running its engine just outside the window. Sound was tolerable but competed with the volume of the tv.

We have stayed here past years. Our room was unfortunately a let down this year. Our shower rod was broken, no shampoo or body wash in the shower containers, the coffee machine was broken and no coffee cups. One top of all this. My kids had two ticks on them in the morning I assume they got in our room since we carried them in from the car.
