My family and I loved the comfortable beds, extra pillows, pool, hot tub and the make your own waffles for breakfast! A suggestion: bigger pool towels, and more vending machine options. Overall, we loved our stay and will definitely be coming back!

Amazing Place To Stay
This was my 3rd time staying at this hotel and as always it was an amazing stay. Staff is always friendly and polite. The hotel is always extremely clean. It’s very quiet even when it’s full house unlike most other hotels. I would definitely recommend staying here. I will forever keep coming back to stay here.

There was a lot of issues with smell of marijuana for 2 to 3 nights complaint to the staff but they couldn't pinpoint what room is coming from so we had to suffer with that head some breathing issues because of it wasn't much of a breakfast no fruit no protein or nothing like that beds were terrible woke up every morning with headaches will probably not go back to that hotel again
