Front desk staff was excellent! The room was clean, we were able to use the conference room to hang out and eat with family not staying at the hotel. My only gripe is how STRONG the chlorine was in the pool area. It was terrible.

Excellent stay. Breakfast is now included for all guests. Water park was fun for the kiddos. EV charging station isn’t technically “on site”, but they are available within a short walking distance through a couple adjacent parking lots.

The staff and hotel were great. We had booked a room through Expedia that said slept 5. When we got to the room it only slept 4. Hotel staff apologized even though it wasn’t their mistake. They gave us a discounted 2nd room. Appreciate them working with us. Expedia needs to fix this.
