We will definitely be back here! The room was spacious and clean. Great shower and beds weren’t too bad. Much nicer than some of the fancier, more expensive hotels we have stayed in before.

As two girls traveling by themselves, we felt very safe. Checking in was easy, and staff was very friendly. Our room was clean and we appreciated the many towels and even makeup wipes provided. A night swim in a heated pool was also nice.

We came on a last minute trip with our two young kids. The family suite was absolutely perfect! Three queen beds between the two rooms made for the perfect setup. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Beds were made with clean linens and were pretty comfortable. The rate was awesome for what we received out of our visit. For return for sure!
