Hotels in Gas City with Swimming Pools

My wife and I needed a nice place to stay near Marion, IN for a conference. The room was very comfortable with microwave, refrigerator, TV, iron plus the board. There were some small details of wear like a torn shear curtain. The hallway was ready to be painted which shows proper upkeep. The elevator was clean and adequate. We did not use the pool but saw families with children enjoying it. The fitness room was in need of repair as it was very warm, and the door was held open with a wire instead of being accessed by the room key. The outside door by the stairway was not room key accessible but it locked which made me feel secure. We enjoyed the provided breakfast each day and the staff were attentive to make sure food was available.

We waited about 20 minutes to check in . There were 2 couples ahead of us . The man at the desk seemed to struggle to get his job done . We were given a second floor room, and there is no elevator. We are in our 70's and have some significant medical issues , but we made do with what we were assigned . Apparently there were no ground level rooms available until the next day . We heard the vacuum hitting the wall in the room next door well after 6 p.m. After an 8 hour drive , we were hoping to relax and maybe nap a bit. Our pillows were not a pair. One was a pillow , the other was chunks of foam stuffed into a pillowcase , not comfortable at all . The night was nice and quiet , pretty good sleep in all. But , in the morning , my husband took a shower , and the shower made a sound like a fire alarm . It woke me and I was prepared to leave the room until I checked on my husband and realized the noise was coming from our bathroom . I was disgusted by that sound . We took our luggage to the ” breakfast room ” . There were 2 kinds of cold cereal , oatmeal in packets that you had to add water to and then microwave it and hope it turns out to be edible and white bread and a toaster . We passed on the luxurious meal , and we left the hotel, never to return . We had stayed here once before and it has gone downhill since. Won't be back to this hotel .
