The woman at the front desk was nice when we checked in. Said “you prob don’t want the 1st floor?” Why, what’s wrong with 1st floor? “Oh it’s by the pool and a lot of screaming kids” yeah please don’t put us by the pool. I really need a good night’s sleep. So she put us on the 3rd (318) with a balcony overlooking the pool and a small banquet area.
The bed is like sleeping on a layer of bricks hidden under a nice pillow top. The pillows were like a small fluffy sheet of cardboard. The walls must be thin because it’s very loud when people are walking down the hall or downstairs in the lobby/dining area.
The rooms are really big, but the bathrooms were small. Everything is pretty dated if you look close enough but it seemed nice and clean.
The bar/restaurant. We sat down at the bar and the gentleman put napkins down but before we say our drink order he walked away. To do what? Dishes, cash out a couple, throw trash away, bring food to another couple and then he made his way back to us. When our friends joined us we got a table to ordered food. The wings were good. I’m not sure why the waiter (who was great) asked how I wanted my steak because it was more than well done instead of medium. The asparagus and potatoes were meh. And the Demi glaze was a little born of A1. But he almost tried on his presentation, assuming the cook is a man, could be a woman. The prices were expensive but we are in NJ/NY.
Breakfast buffet: $24 and not worth $5. Same buffet you’d see at a Motel 6.
