Kids were looking forward to use the swimming pool but it was out of order due to electrical issues. Spoiled our stay.

Looked smelled clean as soon as we walked in the building. We got an early check in (amazing) our room was clean. We have a small problem with our frig but they came and replaced it within mins. The breakfast was so good lots to choose from. And coffee was good too. The only thing i didn't really like was we had to pay for parking. But other than that we had a great stay and well be returning.
