The Milo

The Milo

10/10 Excellent
"We’re family of 11 and stayed in 3 family suites. Jeremiah, a real nice person, helped us assign to the same building close to the main lobby. Other Milo staff are equally impressive when it comes to customer service. They are very attentive to our needs. Patios are so nice and cozy for the family to hang around especially at night. We truly enjoy our family Thanksgiving holiday at Milo. "
