The only issue we have is while taking a shower the warm water alternated with cold water & the shower floor was slippery - had to really be aware. We were disappointed that the outdoor fireplace was ‘broken down’ but understood.

Asked for a king bed with sofa and crib but got a double bed instead. The tv was stuck on the Marriott channel. Restaurant area is nice, limited menu. Nice to have the choice to get food here which we did and a drink.

There was a terrible smell in the room. Some kind of very strong air freshener or something sprayed to cover up some other smells. I told the front desk and he said all the rooms were like that. I kept the door open for hours hoping it would go away. But it didn’t. We could not get our money back because I did it online. It had a no cancellation. In the middle of the night, it got so bad I couldn’t breathe and I had to go outside and sleep in the truck for most of the night,
