1-star experience, but credit where credit is due…read more
Unfortunately, our stay started off very poorly. We experienced consistent rude and dismissive service, including an issue with opened silverware, inconsistent drink pricing, and a restaurant manager who was completely dismissive when we attempted to provide feedback. Honestly, it made sense why his behavior and lack of care had echoed onto his staff.
The front desk service also lacked basic greetings and acknowledgment. It was like they didn't know how to speak to customers. At one point, I called and asked for the manager by his first name, and the woman said, "We don't have anyone here by that name." I explained what he was wearing, and she said, "Oh, we only call him by his last name." I was just shocked. How would I know that? And how do you not know your own manager?
On top of that, there was an AC leak in our room, and my mother almost slipped and fell. There was also a strong smell that seemed like mold.
After we raised our concerns, hotel management did make an effort to correct the situation. They moved us to a different room and provided complimentary dinner and breakfast at Cora's restaurant as an apology for the rude service and behavior. They were unable to provide a refund because we booked through a third party.
I do want to give credit where it is absolutely deserved: the food at Cora's was wonderful, and the service was excellent. Ryan, Lynn, and David genuinely saved the experience for us. They were kind, attentive, professional, and made us feel welcomed.
I appreciate the efforts made to address our concerns, especially moving our room and providing the meals. However, the initial treatment and condition of the property significantly impacted our stay.
Traveling with my mother, who is older, I expected basic courtesy, cleanliness, and professionalism from the beginning. Unfortunately, that was not our experience.
For location and comfy beds, sure. For warm, A+ service, go elsewhere. You can absolutely enjoy the drinks and food at the restaurant without subjecting yourself or your family to the lack of care or appreciation we experienced as guests here.
Cora's: wonderful food and wonderful service. Ryan, Lynn, and David were the bright spot of our stay.
