Christi, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff was friendly and made attempts to make it better. But air conditioning leaked in room something they could not help. Advertising states a pull out can be requested but when requested they state against fire code. Should be stated in the room size when registering for the room. Therefore room was crowded which in itself was against fire code.
Darla, 2-night trip
