The room was very nice. Ground floor so it was easy with my things and my huge dog. Walking around the property was peaceful and educational. I really liked the dinosaur theme. Relatively close distance to other things. Worth every penny!

The rooms at this hotel are not safe. This hotel is using thin white extension cords to plug in their refrigerators and microwaves. Refrigerators and microwaves don’t have a dedicated plug. Extension cords are only supposed to be used on a temporary basis. This hotel is a fire hazard.

We actually ended up having to extend our stay due to hospitalization of a family member and the hotel accommodated without issue. I normally only care about a bed to sleep in but we ended up staying in our room quite a bit. It’s very quiet around here even being close to 285, you barely hear the traffic! I never heard neighbors tv or conversations in our room (even though I heard talking walking in the hall)! The staff has been polite and helpful! The breakfast is pretty good (real eggs) with a decent variety!
