We booked the hotel because we were told the shuttel would be available to our large group. When we arrived, no shuttle service available, unless we wanted to pay the $50.00 roundtrip charge. Our group had booked 5 rooms, at 140.00 each room! The rooms were tiny and had only two bathtowels, we had to request extra towels! They were selling bottled water for $4.00 dollars a bottle, that cost $1.00 up the street. The elevators stopped working on Saturday, so many of us had to take the stairs or the employee elevator-after waiting for assistance for 30 minutes! The hotel breakfast consisted of orange juice, coffee, eggs, bacon and muffins. All of that for $11.00, per person!! I would recommend staying somewhere else to everyone!
