Liked: Amenities
Lots of space in the room (we were in 6A) - only issue was it was a connected room and most people only stayed one night so were up super early crashing around in the morning(could easily hear talking and the tv through the wall). Shower was very weak, beds were fine though the single in the kids room was well past it. Kitchen amenities were good and clean. Parking was a little tight but doable. Good stay but very pricey for what it is.

If the Hilton is not within your budget, the bungalows/cottages (equipped with fridge and coffee-making facility) on this campground next door could well be an excellent alternative for you. As one may expect, the bathroom facilities are shared, but well-heated and very clean. (These are strictly available to guests only with a security code) There is a common kitchen too. The famous hot springs are a 2-minute walk down the hill. Free wifi.
