Independence: hotel con bar

While the building was attractive, the rooms, the amenities, and the service were no better than what you'd get at a Day's Inn. There were also some odd things about the service and the facilities. First, the hotel boasted both an outdoor and an indoor pool (and a hot tub). The outdoor pool was closed and the hot tub was drained. On top of that, the hotel required that you wear paper wristbands to use the pool (or you will be evicted without refund), but you need an active room key to get into the pool in the first place. At one point, the desk manager came and asked families in the pool to get out and get the wristbands, which was really awkward. The pool set up is neat and unusual. The outdoor pool communicates with the indoor pool, and you can have a pool-side room with sliding doors that open to the outdoor pool area. It would be a neat feature-- as long as the outdoor pool is open, which it wasn't. There were also odd breakdowns-- like the ice machine not working and housecleaning trying to clean out our room before checkout time. All in all, I would have rather gone to a cheaper hotel. The experience was not worth the extra cost.

Our first time at this hotel and we were pleasantly surprised! Full disclosure, it’s the older style hotel that has the rooms all looking down to a central lounge/eating area. But they have clearly been trying to keep it current. We had a corner double and other than the shelving under the bathroom vanity in our room being slightly older, the other furniture, fixtures and lamps seemed fairly new. The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean. We also had a bigger tv on the wall in the living room than we expected. The staff members were courteous, as well. Would stay here again.

大堂在裝修有點亂，但房間不受影響。入住體驗不錯。
