Spark was a great place to stay due to its location, its updated rooms and its fun and friendly pool area. Lynn, the poolside bartender, created a great atmosphere for families, couples and solo adults. I highly recommend Spark!

Everything was great for the most part! Everything was clean, staff was super duper nice and the area was great, tons of good food options nearby. We did have an issue with ants in our room one night, granted I did leave an apple juice out on accident (they loved it) but still a little unnerving they can get in like that. Also, the yogurt machine at breakfast was broken 2 of our 3 mornings, as well as the coffee cups not having lids, so that was pretty inconvenient as I couldn’t take any coffee in our rental car. Lastly, the bar closed like 20 minutes early the one night, which I get but if it’s advertised till 9 it should stay open until 9, we would’ve gone down earlier if we knew it was gonna close early. Those are just nitpicky things tho, we loved our stay and would come again!

There was little to no protein on the breakfast bar. Hard boiled eggs were often out or not there at all. Remote in our room did not work and we had to get another one. Room was clean and staff were pleasant.
