I reserved a king room in lagoon bldg, got a rm with 2 double (not queen) beds, bad mattresses, baseboards in bathroom were filthy, staff wouldn't change it to king. I've stayed here since 1990's, loved it, what a disappointment.

Great location but needs updating

Location is great! Walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The room was just okay. I had stayed here previously and knew they didn’t seem to care which type of room you booked. Last time I paid extra for a room with a view and had to fight for it. This time I got the construction special and was happy to not be in the construction zone. The bed was comfortable but otherwise the room was very dated. It worked for what I needed but the musty smell was annoying. I’m really hoping the construction means new updated rooms. The restaurant is great and so is the location.

It was an average OK property charging a price as a premium. Example: drinking cups in the rooms were plastic and paper. Example: It took 20 minutes to get a dinner table.
