This girl was great and so fun for my dinosaur-loving kid. The front desk staff were so friendly and breakfast was great. The beds were comfortable, and it’s located near several restaurants.

Room was cold. 19° outside. Took over an hour to warm it up, so we could sleep. Bathroom stayed cold. Scrambled eggs were crunchy. Very clean and friendly, but will be careful believing reviews in the future.

We have stayed here every year our kids have wrestled at TOC. The staff is friendly. The rooms are clean. The heat has been on for us on the cold winter nights for our late arrival. The rooms are spacious.
