The splash pad was awesome. The one staff guy at the pool worked so hard. He was trying his best to keep kids from going head first down the water slide & not going up the slide the wrong way PLUS being in charge of the towel check out. His hands were full. Also someone had a fire over in the grilling area and a guy from the staff came out of nowhere and quickly put it out. Check out was the worst part of our stay.

We had such a great stay at this hotel! The highlight was definitely the pool—it was perfect for kids and kept them entertained for hours. The whole property felt very family-friendly, which made our trip so much easier and more enjoyable. From the welcoming staff to the kid-friendly amenities, everything was set up with families in mind. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone traveling with children!

Accommodations were lovely. The only improvement that would have made it better for us is to be able either cast our media to TV or sign into our streaming services. The cable was cumbersome.

The beds were comfortable, the staff was extremely helpful and the residences present a like-home quality that makes you want to stay longer. The 2 bathrooms were a most welcomed treat. Not having to share a bathroom with my kids while on vacation was so awesome. We loved it and will definitely return.

We will not stay here again. The suite was not well maintained; the furniture was worn and stained, there was a thick coat of dust and dirt built up on the HVAC air intake vent, and there was an odor of grease and mustiness that permeated the suite. Not a good experience.

The unit was comfortable and clean. It has seen a lot of use and that’s evident on the general condition of the flooring, furniture, and appliances. Check in took a really long time and there weren’t that many people. The entry foyer to our unit was filthy. It looks like the previous family before us dragged their trash along the floor leaving crumbs and bits of of food all they way from our door, down the steps, and to the outside. I informed the front desk and it was never addressed during the entirety of our stay.
