Disliked: Amenities
This property has always been a favorite of our. However, since the change of leadership with the GM there has been a decline, especially in the restaurant. Key takeaways - The room carpets and carpets throughout were in a dire need of a good cleaning, our allergies were horrible in our room due to this (dander, mold, mildew) and the toilet seat in our room was not secure and shifted. The hotel states that it is pet friendly and has a mulched area for dogs. I am physically disabled and was glad for this. However, the area is not handicap accessible, the shrubs are overgrown and congested together, leaving no area for even my 12lb dog to walk and relieve itself. Additionally, some of the shrubs are not dog friendly and poisonous and digested. Dinner was less than desirable. We got the charcuterie as a starter which was nothing more that pre-packaged lunch meat as well as pre-packaged sliced cheese. We both got the flat iron steak cooked medium. This steak had no flavor at all, was over cooked, and tough. Our meal was definitely not worth $140. The dinner menu is extremally limited for those who are GF. The positive of our meal was the passion fruit mojito mocktail. Breakfast was superior and the highlight of our stay. If we stay at this hotel again, we will definitely go elsewhere for dinner.
