The parking is terrible. The stalls are way too narrow. Our truck wouldn’t fit in one stall so we either took up two stalls which there was none available so we had to park in overflow parking.

Good stay

This is a nice hotel with friendly staff. My kids enjoyed the pool (which is nicely sized for a hotel) and waterslide. Negatives is the hotel never seemed to have enough towels for everyone (it was at capacity the nights we stayed) and downtown is kind of far away, They also had a technical problem during our stay and couldn't provide us with two key cards.

Hotel was great, updated and mostly clean. Our suite was not. The chaise in the room had a lot of crumbs. Not just in the cracks but on top of cushion and around the floor. Tub drain was very very slow. There was left over food in the fridge. Staff were nice and friendly. Breakfast was ok, gets quite busy.

The hotel room was clean. The staff was very friendly. There was a problem with a shortage with towels at the pool, but when informed about it, they immediately gave me towels and said they will restock the towels at the pool. The breakfast was your typical breakfast selection , but fresh. Overall, i would recommend this hotel to friends and family.
