Ellston Hotels with Swimming Pool

"N/a"

"Clean, very large rooms "

"This property was a clean stay, rooms were nice and beds comfortable. Somewhat noisy with the trains going through. Breakfast was good. My biggest issue though was the pool. Was a nicely warm pool, but I was concerned after both my son and myself accidentally discovered an uncovered suction drain that had a very powerful,violent pull/suction to it. It left a very noticeable mark on my son's back the rest of the evening. There are other holes around the pool that shoot warm water into the pool. This suction area looked similar to those but this totally open, exposed 2" PVC pipe looking thing was very shocking to get sucked into. Left a red mark on my hand, similar to my son's back. We went to tell the front desk and they just said they were aware and it's "suppose to be like that". This just seems completely UNSAFE. It really seems like it should have a cap or vent or SOMETHING over it. I told my kids to stay away from that area after I was aware of it. Both of my daughters were wearing piggy tail braids and that vent could've easily sucked one of their braids in getting them stuck there. I'd really advise the staff to look into making this spot safer in your pool. But if they don't, be wary of the hole that's just left to the 4' depth sign... don't let your kids play by it. I'm not kidding when I say it's a VERY STRONG suction. We were completely caught off guard with it. While the property is clean, this pool needs attention and swimmers beware if they don't fix this.

"Overall, an enjoyable stay. Would liked to have had a closet or hangers in the room for coats, etc. Not many electrical outlets. Nice room overall. Good value for the price. Breakfast a bit sparse, but okay. We will stay here again."
