Not the greatest

Room smelled terrible of cooked bacon for the whole first half of our stay. Asked for air freshener and was told someone would have to come to our room to spray it. They never showed. Staff wasn’t friendly at all. The bathtub was stopped up so it held water while you showered. The bed was comfortable and the pancake house was pretty good, a little pricey for breakfast food but it tasted good. Last day of our stay the elevator went out so we had to carry all our luggage down 3 floors of steps. Definitely not fun!

I have a three year old daughter and she had the kiddie pool to herself the whole stay! She did finally learn to swim with her floatation device last night (the last night of our stay). The beds were neat and cleaned, and comfy toppers. It was overall great stay with great weather!
