We enjoyed our stay. Hotel was clean and it was close to stores. Plenty of parking. Breakfast had a variety of hot and cold options, including the pancake machine. Very nice staff, particularly the person who checked us in when we arrived.

Not the greatest stay

Pros: - Staff was nice and friendly, check in was easy. Cons: - Bathroom wasn't that clean, - Shower door wouldn't stay closed - "Clean" towels has brown specs stuck on them, like small pieces of cardboard

We needed a hotel for one night. Many hotels were sold old. They only had a few rooms available. There was a group of young soccer players and another group. Staff was friendly, there was 24 hr coffee, tea, and hot cocoa available. There was breakfast but we choose to eat somewhere else. My only complaint is the doors to the rooms could use slow close or foam absorbing trim around the closure.

When we got to our room it smelled molded so we ask to be moved to another room and they did. That room we couldn't get the TV to work so they moved us to another room which was fine. We paid for a suite, but ended up with a regular room

Overall it was a great hotel experience. My kids loved the free hot chocolate availability in the lobby. The pool was a great size and comfortable temperature. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast didn't taste as good as it looked, and that was disappointing. My kids and I had a good stay and would return to stay there in the future.
