Has all the amenities and great breakfast buffet. Convenient location. Would give five stars but we were placed in an accessible room which we did not prefer.
My sons and I had a great stay. The room was so comfortable, clean and quiet. Great place for kids. My sons had a bball tournament so the pool and spas were great for their recovery in between games and at the end of the days. The staff were friendly and welcoming and food was great
The hotel was easy to find, and the staff were very friendly. Checking in and out were hassle free. Our room had everything we needed and the toiletries were very nice. We also enjoyed our time in the pool. The dinner buffet had a good range as did the breakfast.
Checking in and out was simple and quick with friendly, courteous staff. The pool was smaller than expected so we left that to families with smaller kids. Room was nice and cool which was appreciated as it was a hot day when we checked in.
Loved the resort vibe for a few days of R&R with the family. Naturally heated pool and hot tub, clean rooms, lots of parking, and on site laundry of you need it. Hotel has a breakfast and dinner buffet options. Would recommend.
