Very safe area. We came in April and the pool was not heated at all which didn't stop the kids and dad had no choice, but I certainly wasn't getting in. If you get a chance, go check out the waterfalls around Valentine. We got the presidential suite and it was fun. Overall it was clean and a good place to rest after a day of exploring!

Overall this is a nice place to stay. Only complaint would be the pool and hottub weren't very clean, and the tub/shower in our rooms were dirty. Everything else was great.

Great stay for a family of 6 traveling. The lady that checked us in was nice and let us know they had housekeeping shortages so we would have to go down there if we needed anything. Hot breakfast options were offered the next morning.

For the nicest hotel in town, it was average at best. They didn’t keep the carpet clean in common areas and didn't make any changes after complaining about office noise from below my room. Upon arrival, no hand soap provided in bathroom even. 2 empty coffee carafs at breakfast time. For the price paid, we expected better quality & service.
