I stayed at the ramada for 2 nights. First night was by myself the 2nd night I was having my family meet me. I checked in and the front desk staff was very friendly they pointed me in the derecatoin of how to get to my room on the 3rd floor. I got on the elovator and went up to the 3rd floor only to step off and find that I was on the oppisted side of the hotel that I needed. Not a big deal to walk and find your room but when your bag is heavy is makes for a longer walk. I found my room went in sat my stuff down and like always when I check into a hotel I always check for bed begs. After my check and finding nothing I started to look around the room and take a few pictures to share. I spotted a stain on the duvet cover and bedskirt. I also found a rip on the couch and a ear plug on the floor from different guest. Other than those few littel things the room seemed to be very clean as well as the bathroom. I did not have a great view from my window but that was not a big deal. The tv channels were very limited and were not very good which was a dissapotmant. I did have to go down to the front desk and request a new coffee pot since my was broken. They were very nice and sent housekeep up with a new one for me.
Day 2 I decided to head to the mall since it was right behind the hotel and this would give housekeeping a chance to empty the trash and what not. The hotel has signs in the room telling guest what to do to help go green. I decided to fallow a few and they were to use the same towels and sheets. Not a big deal I do it at home. I did not leave the change my sheets card on the bed and I did hang up my towels, but when I came back housekeeping had changed to the sheets and I know this because the duvet cover did not have a stain on it like the last one. They also took my towels and let clean ones. I know this is what they are use to and they are only doing there job but if they could just look before they do to see who might want to help the envornmint. Later that day the rest of my party checked in and they request a room by the pool. I went down to see them and all I could smell from the pool was clorine and all you could hear in there room was everyone playing and yelling in the pool. But that is the room they wanted and i was glad I didnt get one. Since there were birthday partys taking place my party deiced to wait for adult swim which I am glad they have. Only a few adults were in the pool and then 6 teens who did not look very old showed up without wristebands and began swimming and going downt he slid. They were not very aware of others when going down the slide. one of them came out of the slide right after I did and I ended up kicking her trying to get out of the way. They did this for most of the hour. All while the pool staff just sat there doing nothing. Other than a few small things my stay was overall not to bad.
