The breakfast was amazing. The room we stayed in had mold on the ceiling and we were told there was a couch/chase lounge in the room. There was not we booked the room for 5 people (3 teenage boys) and two parents. We ended up with a roll away bed because there was not a couch or chase lounge in the room. The room was also not big enough for a roll away bed so it was in the entry way of the room. We made it work and overall our stay was fine.

We found out after we checked in they no longer had a pool at the facility. Our room was toasty when we checked in and took most of the night to get to 72 degrees. We were on the 3rd floor & the Dollar General had a spotlight that shined directly into our room, even with the blackout curtain pulled down. The hallway is noisy if there are loud talkers or kids running up and down.
