I liked my room, the location was good and the parking was easy and close to the entrance. The person checking me in took time to be friendly and explain local dining options to everyone before me in the line and then chose to answer a phone call immediately after starting to check me in, then whispering ‘you’re all set’ to dismiss me. I’d had a really long and difficult journey to get there, and then waited some time in a line to check in. I also needed to ask about things nearby but didn’t feel I could. It wasn’t a great welcome especially considering he was so friendly to the other guests.

Breakfast lady

I paid for 3 nights everything was perfect the day before we left my son had accidentally spilled some eggs and I hadn’t noticed she instantly started talking crap to another guest about us making my children very uncomfortable and kept staring at us mumbling things under her breath the next day my 14 year old went to breakfast were the same lady was staring at them and talked to another guest saying if she makes a mess I’m not cleaning it up anytime we went down there she was staring at us mumbling things under her breath for to amount of money I paid for a hotel over some spilled eggs I feel like that was so trashy and unprofessional I will not be returning and management will be contacted I have never been disrespected by a worker like that before

I had a girl’s night with my three young daughters and it was great! We had the first room on the first floor, close to everything but specifically the pool and breakfast. The entry into our room fit our wagon (to haul all the things) perfectly. My only wish was that the pool was warmer, my kiddos might have wanted to use it more. Thanks for a nice, quick trip!

The people are very nice and helpful. My son has tree nut allergy and staff was very knowledgeable and helpful with his food. Also have animal allergy so they gave us a room where animals are not allowed to stay. Excellent. Highly recommend.

Property was clean. Treadmill in gym made horrible, loud noises. Staff was very slow to replace a serving utensil dropped on the floor during breakfast. No bag for dirty clothes in the room. Shower control was not intuitive on how to use.
