For those of you that stayed at the Knights and were very unhappy, I do want to explain something. Myself and Rebecca Woodland from the CVB went there in March I believe, talked to the manager and personally inspected 6 rooms. Everything we saw was up to par. Apparently after the hurricane they lost a considerable amount of their staff along with a head housekeeper. Still no excuse. There were complaints as early as Tuesday evening and the manager of the hotel called me at 1130 at night to assure me she would do everything she could to try to make people happy. I know one person who booked in had a microwave which did not work. The manager sent help out that night to buy a new one and put in the room. She tried to accommodate as best as she could. I guess between the spring and the show things took a crash dive. For those of you who were unhappy, I just wanted to assure you that the hotel was on the list because it did look great on initial inspections. And everyone did say it was the best grounds area for the dogs. Sorry for recommending something that was less than satisfactory.
