Knowing we would arrive early, we arranged to store our bags until check in. We dropped our bags and returned around 1pm, intending to sit at the pool and have a drink while we waited. When we got back, our bags were still sitting in the lobby- not behind the front desk or in a secure area. We got to the pool, but found out after changing that there wasn't a bar. There was a small refrigerator with some drinks in it, but we didn't see it on our way in and the receptionist didn't mention it when we asked for pool towels and obviously would be waiting a while. Between not having anything to drink and the pool being too cold to swim in, it was a waste of time. We could see our room from where we sat, and after about an hour of seeing no activity in or around it, we checked with the front desk again. We were finally let into our room. It was a decent size and mostly clean with the exception of the bathroom garbage. A hotel that directs guests to put their used toilet paper in the garbage rather than flushing it should be more thorough in making sure it is emptied between guests. Unfortunately, it was difficult to appreciate much after this. Toiletries were limited to soap and shampoo. The "cable TV" literally was ONE channel. The beautiful stained glass door and surrounding wall let so much light into the room it was difficult to fall asleep. It also did not feel safe since you could see everyone walking past the glass door. Poor value for the price. Staff wasn't even friendly.
