"This is my second time staying at Springhill and I returned again because we had a great experience the first time. This second time, we were a bit disappointment. Our 3rd night we returned to the hotel from visiting family, and we could not find parking whatsoever because they had a party in their conference room.
When I went to the front desk, we were told out of courtesy to park at the Hamptons next door, and the event should be done at 11pm. My husband has ankle issues which he cannot walk too far. We waited in the car for about 35-40min for closer parking. The event did not finish at 11pm. This situation was not managed well at all. Cars were parked everywhere, they created their own parking. As a paying customer it was very frustrating because it was not handled properly specially for people that have health issues and can’t walk too much.
Please do better with managing situations like this."
"The kitchen was equipped for light cooking. There is a walking area outside. Walking outside of the back entrance the grounds were littered with cigarette butts which are not friendly to dogs. You pay almost as much for the pet fee as you do for the nights stay the grounds should be monitored for cleanliness for people and pets. The area is great. "
"Breakfast was a little pricey for the buffet. Pool was clean, rooms were great. They came in and cleaned everyday when we were gone, even though we had the do not disturb sign on the door. Staff were friendly, hotel was quiet. Would stay again."
