online said they had an outdoor hot tub and when I got there the staff said they did not have one. Also the key cards did not like to open doors even after being re programmed twice. went to get breakfast at 8am they were already out of cream cheese when i had asked staff where it was located. Good stay other than those few things.

It was a good time had a big room. Was mostly clean tried to make the pullout mattress work for the my daughter and was disgusted by the mattress so I just had her sleep on the couch which was fine. The pool was clean just a little cold for our liking. The breakfast was good. Was busy but had a hard time keeping up. The person running it tried to close it about 20 minutes early which kinda pushed everyone away. But overall a good place to stay
