We stayed in a non smoking room and still ended up smelling nothing but smoke through the whole time we were there. The hot tub wasn’t working, main reason we picked here to stay, had no extra pillows which wasn’t such a big deal since we went out and bought some. Breakfast ended up being the same thing every morning we were there.
