The stay was good for the price but the hotel needs updating. Great for kids and full of them but would have LOVED if they had 1 hour at the end of the day where the pool/hot tub was for adults only like a lot of other places.

Stay was fine, wasn't in room much. Did smell of smoke in entry of room but staff quickly got us a remote when none was in the room. Everyone was friendly. Would just recommend different set up for breakfast so those making a waffle don't hold up the line

The kids playing around the pool was a nice back drop, reducing the days events into a soft “porch visiting” atmosphere.

very convenient location, nice accomodations, rooms were clean and property well kept.
What I found a little short coming was the water pressure in the sink lavatory was very weak. Additional help was needed in the breakfast, the two staff were great, but were just over whelmed by the number of guests. reorganization of the breakfast area could be addressed due to the congestion created by having the coffee at the same place where plates and cutlery are accessed.

Too short
The only complaint i have is that i have 4'10" and have hip & knee replacements and getting into bed with the high mattress height was difficult. Either loweror have a step to use. Otherwise everything else was exceptional.

They ask you to check in online to save time but when you get there you still have to go through the whole checkin procedure again. I stay here a few time a year, I won't bother with online check in again
