Kim was amazing at check in. She was kind, thoughtful and really made us feel welcomed. All staff was friendly. Our room was big, clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. The pool, was a little over chlorinated and small. We parked our rv on the street during our stay and had had no issues.
