When we arrived at the hotel, we found out they had no reservation or us because the Catfish Bend Inn & Spa has been under contructions since Feburary and none of the rooms are available for booking. We were lucky enough to get into a different hotel, but it was very inconvenient for us. I don't know why you would book a hotel that is not even open on Hotels.com!

The desk staff was exceptionally kind and courteous! Our room was very clean! We had a late check out, would have preferred a little longer than the half hour given, but understand the staff shortage. I didn't appreciate the Housekeeping staff member literally waiting outside of our door with her arms crossed when we walked out though!
