We had a great stay with our grandkids at this hotel. Our rooms were not ready until 4:45pm but the reception staff allowed us to use the pool while waiting for our room. For the grandkids (4 & 1 yo) swimming at your pool was the highlight of their vacation. Thanks to your friendly staff, our stay was a blast!
