Room had a lot of space and very clean. Pet friendly! Staff was very nice. Only concern was there was a group in the common area that was really loud one night past quiet hours. Noise carries from the common area to the rooms. However, would stay here again.

Upset to walk into the pool area and see yellow caution tape around the hot tub. I pick hotels based on them having a pool for my daughter and hot tub for myself. I wish there was some sort of way to know before booking that the hot tub was down. The pool water was also dirty like pond water. I didn’t even get in the pool. My daughter got in for maybe 10 mins. Also a little alarming I had to sign a paper at check in saying I wasn’t going to have a pool party or late night party during my stay. Wow. But, we were kept up til 2am with people (kids?) running up and down the halls. Just a disappointing stay. We won’t be back.

Breakfast should start a little earlier for early risers and parents should maintain their children. They were playing on doors the night I stayed but no harm no foul.
