Walls are not insulated, so all I hear all night long we’re kids stomping around upstairs during sleeping hours. Found a babies milk bottle in between the couch cushions filled with moldy milk. Refrigerator door wouldn’t swing open due to the fridge being sunk into the carpet, tv was super glitchy and took at least 15 seconds to simply change each channel. Breakfast only had carbohydrates, zero protein. Pretty upsetting for the price tag.

We had a blast in the water park- our three year old played and swam for five hours straight! Beds were fine (comfy but not excellent). The free breakfast was great and I was shocked how good the food was that we got from the snack bar. Very fun stay!

We've been coming here for years and every year our experience gets worse and worse. This year was our last time after terrible service from management. The first night i waited in the store as the solo guest for 20 minutes to check out. The manager on duty was working the check in guest so i knew itd take a bit. But instead of helping me in between customers, he kept helping new people coming in. He knew i was in the store and i asked if he was the only one working and he said yes you need to wait.I ended up putting my items back and walking out. Then a puppy was tied to a tree outside a room with a chain maybe 2 feet long. She was on rocks and ice and the tree kept poking her in the eyes since she had no where to move. She kept whining so i went to the front desk and the same manager said its not his probelm till quiet hours. 4 hours went by and keep in mind it was only 20 degrees. Again he refused to do anything. I gave the dog a pillow to lay on because she kept lifting her paws from the ice.We called the non emergency number who also didnt seem to care and said they were busy...finally i ended up finding the owners drunk in the bar and they lied and said they just got there. They eventually got their dog. I took the pillow back which was covered in blood and poop. The next night we went to the store at 9:01 and it was still open. As we walked in the same manager came over and shut the door in our face without saying a thing! Never again will we give our business here!

Love the new layout/ remodel
Great place! Great stay! Love the new layout/ remodel!!! A couple issues in room 304 that need attention but great overall! Sharp screw sticking out of headboard with a note on it. A potential liability. Shelf under the freezer had mold or mildew. None of that a game changer for us. Otherwise the room was very clean, very comfortable, and convenient in all ways. Such comfortable mattresses too.
