The staff was always very friendly and helpful. The room was quiet, clean and comfy. The kids & I really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We took toys to play with in the pool and had fun sharing them with other guests. The parking lot is large. We easily found good places to park. A 10+ rating.

Everything and the staff were quite nice and the bed was especially comfortable but we were booked into a room right next to the breakfast area. Starting about 6:30 am groups of loud men were having a friendly breakfast on the other side of a sliding glass room door to our room. We needed to sleep later that day but couldn’t. If it weren’t for being woken by loud voices way before we were ready to get up, the place would have been perfect. If we’d been forewarned about the noise we would have asked for a different room.
