I enjoyed staying here, especially because my daughter had a lot of fun. However, there are a few areas that need immediate attention: 1. The elevator was extremely slow, and the stairwell had a strong unpleasant odor—possibly due to a leaking drainpipe. 2. The breakfast selection was very limited, and the quality could definitely be improved. 3. The swimming pool was not as clean as it should be. 4. A piece of the wooden bench in the sauna is broken and should be repaired immediately to prevent any potential injuries. Aside from these issues, the overall cleanliness of the hotel was good, and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

My family and I stayed at this property in April, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. We had booked a room with two queen beds but were told we were set for an upgrade—which didn’t happen due to lack of availability. Instead, we were given a bottle of wine and glasses, though none of us drink. The room had two double beds, which didn’t suit our family. A leaking pipe in the bathroom caused constant dripping, making sleep difficult. The room temperature couldn’t be adjusted, and while the AC didn’t cool, it made loud noises above our heads, adding to the discomfort. The pool, one of the hotel’s highlights, was always overcrowded from open to close, with people waiting for others to leave. The breakfast was decent—fresh bagels and good bacon, though the eggs weren’t great. Parking was also frustrating; if you arrived after 7 p.m., spots were nearly impossible to find. Would I stay here again? I’m not sure. I’ve submitted a complaint to my booking agent.

Honestly would come back. Only downside was I got a migraine from the fan running, but I think that was more of a me problem. Pillows weren’t the best but the beds were comfortable so I slept well that way! Kids loved the pool! Too bad there weren’t more shallow options but we just bought our youngest a float and that helped! Will stay again

Unfortunately both my kids ended up getting some sort of chemical burn/reaction from the hottub, they had emptied and fully filled back up but I don’t think the chemicals where ever checked before people were allowed in. Otherwise the staff were great the rooms where clean and the slide was a lot of fun

Very family friendly!

We had a great time and it was actually the best hotel breakfast I’ve had because of how many options there were to choose from! Ps, if you want to swim without a ton of people, the only time the pool wasent busy was right when it opened because everyone was going to breakfast instead lol

There were a lot of short cuts here. Our in room fireplace was caked in dust. Rings not cleaned in sinks. Just generally accumulated dirt and dust. Random garbage bags sat in the hallway overnight until we asked front desk to remove. Finally, there were two metal pieces sticking out from the bed slicing my daughter’s foot.
