Very nice!
I had a great stay with my family of 6 on our vacation to adventureland and the service was great! I hate that I can’t remember the lady at the front desks name, but she was absolutely amazing and very nice! She helped us book another room and kept the process very simple. I will be staying here again! 🙂

The bed wasn't the most comfortable and the toilet paper, paper towels, etc. I am sure were eco-friendly, but they almost felt cheap as soon as you touched them, they were falling apart. Other than that it was a great stay. There were different breakfast options daily, the staff were friendly, not much to complain about at all.

I am now a HOMEWOOD suites fan for life!
Our room was great, excellent sized with kitchen and additional seating area which is always nice. Beds were comfy. Breakfast was good. Cameron at the front desk was very personable and seemed to like his job- which I find rare these days! He was very helpful and friendly. The only drawback I would say (and it is somewhat minor) is that the air was really dry. Maybe it was the time of year, or allergies, but the room could have used some humidity for sure. Not sure how that would be reconciled, but we just ran the shower for awhile and it seemed to help some.

Very clean and newly remodeled. Staff were very friendly. The problem was the guest attendant did not know how to turn on the fireplace outside, which was the highlight for my three sons that accompanied me on our trip. The pool only went to 4 feet so we planned on having conversation over the fire. the next day, the maintenance guy claimed to have fixed it, but it still did not work. Inside fire place should also have been on. I’m sure it doesn’t generate much heat, but for aesthetics.
If I ever return to this hotel, I will call First and make sure the fireplace is working.

Fill Up the Darn Bottles in the Shower!
We've stayed here a few times. Overall, we like the place, especially because they allow pets. My only issue is that the shampoo, soap, and conditioner bottles are usually almost empty each time.
Just fill them up before the next guests arrive! It's a real hassle to ask the person at the desk if they can have someone come up and fill the bottles in the shower.

Room wasn’t ready at check in, we looked past that but then we got to our room and it smelled terrible. Strong smell of onions and cilantro. Very unpleasant for 2 days. There was a dirty towel left in our bathroom and beer taps on the floor. Fire alarm went off at 730am as well.
