Comfortable but bad internet

Beds were comfortable, staff was good, breakfast was good. Only drawback was that the internet sucked. It was difficult to log on and it wasn’t fast enough to get any work done.

There was a bday party or some sort of family gathering the same weekend of our reservations. I had two rooms on the 1st floor, it got unbearably loud in the early morning hours. I went to the front lobby and asked if I could get different rooms. Without hesitation I was assigned two rooms on the 3rd floor. The staff was great, I really appreciated the fact that I did not have to spend time pleading my case at 2:00am!
