Stayed with family · For friends and family

Check in was a breeze and the front desk was very nice. Our room was clean and comfortable. We only stayed one night so didn’t go to the pool or gym, but it looks like they provided towels. Breakfast was good. If we are in the area again, we would definitely stay here again.

The rooms were very clean, the staff was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast each day hit the spot and my kids enjoyed dipping into the indoor away from the heat of the sun during our stay

The hotel was mostly great. Only issues were with other patrons not being respectful as far as having their kids keep quiet when others are sleeping both at night and in the mornings. Also the pool was down most of Saturday which was half the reason we booked the hotel.

If you are looking for some rest. Depending on which side you stay, meaning the side where the main hotel entrance is, you may have to deal with people outside talking and hearing them. Other wise everything else is not bad.

Clean and comfortable room, great breakfast, hot tub was a nice extra. No real complaints. Note that TV's do not have apps which was not a huge deal for me.
