The room was very comfortable, the furniture a little worse for wear, but not awful. Our view out the window was of a salvage yard, not that we spent much looking out the window!

Overall, it was a good experience. The rooms are definitely dated, but the amenities at the property were very nice to have. The breakfast was more grab and go, which is okay because some items were good for later to have. They have free laundry on site so that was super convenient to have.

Lobby was beautifully updated. Rooms could use some updating or at least a fresh coat of paint. The walls had marks and areas where paint has chipped off. Staff was very friendly.

Clean, but room walls show wear and tear. Bit of a dank/musty odor but not noticeable after being in room after a bit. Indoor Pool and Spa, clean and warm/hot. Super nice staff. Good conty breakfast. I'd stay again. Shower kicks ass with pressure.

My son and I stayed for 1 night and we both slept great! It felt like we were sleeping on clouds...the beds were so comfortable. The waterslide was so much fun! Not a lot of options for breakfast but we made do. Their breakfast burritos were good!

The water slide was the best for kids and adults! Breakfast could be better. No pancakes or waffles. All to go items (bagels, English muffins, bread, microwave burritos, cereal). Staff were all friendly and polite. Rooms were nice. Super noisy in the morning from other guests before 8:30am (it was like they were the only ones to think about). That was for both our mornings there.

Worst experience. Un supportive

Horrible, after we entered the room the look and feel is worst. The photos are misleading on the site. I immediately search for rooms availability in the other hotels and checked out. We did not get any refund, we requested to provide atleast partial refund but they did not help us. Please be careful to book a room here. Hotels.com also did not help us. A big no in my opinion
