Overall great stay! We notified them in advance twice we had a dog coming with and would be arriving close to midnight, and was told no problem, and that all buildings were dog friendly except 1. When we arrived we found out they put us in the 1 non dog friendly building on accident - but it was so late at night they were in really accommodating given it was their mistake in the room assignments. They let us stay in there and even provided a written note confirming it was ok. I would definitely...

I had to walk all the way over to the restaurant to ask the bartender to open my bottle of wine during dinner rush on a Saturday, wouldn't be that hard to have a wine opener at the front desk. Otherwise it's a clean and lovely hotel. Little noisy. Staff was polite, but not having a wine opener was a tad inconvenient. Also they closed the pool for maintenance from 7-8pm on a Saturday when clearly several families had come just to use the pool.
