Very disappointed! The photos for one make it look like a resort, it was not. I called before reserving and was told we would have an inside room close to the breakfast and pool as I brought my handicap parent. We were by the main road at far end of the hall, no Inside the hotel rooms they were all pull up and park curb hotel rooms.

Great Hotel

My family and i stayed here for a week. Very nice hot breakfast, very clean dining area. Room was very spacious and clean. Pool options were great my daughter is 5 and just learning to swim and this hotel offered a toddler pool as well as the big pool and hot tub. The game room was great. Laundry room worked well washers and dryers are alittle old but they worked well. Customer service was excellent anytime we needed anything like towels or toilet tissue they were really quick with getting the items to us. Hotel was very quiet even when they was packed with people you never heard any noise. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and my family and I will definitely be staying here again.

The beds were comfortable, but the air conditioner could not keep the humidity out of the room. This lead to a daily ceiling drip by the bathroom.

Great until evacuation

It was great until the last night. We were evacuated for a fire and had to leave early the next morning. We ended up leaving early and didn’t even stay our last night because the firemen had us out in the parking lot. Wish we could have stayed our last night like we paid :/

I traveled with my elderly mother and my sister. The parking was great for us as we were able to park right in front of our room, made it very easy to load/unload the luggage. Our room was nice, it was clean, beds were comfortable. I loved the little creek/river in the back of the property with benches to sit and watch. Walking distance to many things... we walked across the street to the Biblical Times and next door is the Christmas Village. Enjoyed our stay.
