This place was very nice and clean! Check-in was a breeze, never had to make contact with anyone! Everything we needed was in the room waiting for us. Bikini Bob's Bar and Grill, the Summit Market, and the Tiki Bar were so convenient. Overall, I would stay again!

Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience in Room 828. This is not the standard we strive to maintain, and we completely understand your disappointment, especially since you’ve stayed at The Summit before and know what to expect.
We do wish you had reached out during your stay so we could have addressed the concerns right away, but we appreciate you letting us know now. Your comments have been shared with our cleaning and maintenance team so the mildew smell and cleanliness issues can be resolved. While we’re glad to hear you’ll return to The Summit, we truly regret that Room 828 did not meet your expectations.
Thank you again for taking the time to let us know.
