The staff were wonderful to talk with and were helpful. The room was dated but clean. Beds were comfortable. The pool was clean and the kids had a good time. The only disappointment was when we went swimming, in the morning before check out, we found out the waterside didn’t open until 4 pm. I never saw that info online.

Something has changed at this location where it does not feel safe. There are some sketchy activities going on in the back area of the motel with people coming in after hours at night and hanging out in the stair wells. Also more domestics and door slamming.
