Nice clean hotel. Unfortunately, we booked and paid more than surrounding hotels for the purpose of using the pool and hot tub. Both were closed due to "chemical issues." I honestly don't think they should charge full price if their main amenity is closed. If we had been informed ahead of time we would have canceled and stayed somewhere else.
