All the doors were locked at 3am. Totally understandable but it was hard to figure out how to get in until an employee saw us and opened a door.

My family stayed for a week. The staff and customer service were excellent. Literally, some of the best customer service I’ve experienced in a hotel stay. The hotel room we had an electrical issue which prevented us from using the outlets to charge our phones unless the light was on. Now keep in mind, our room also had master electrical switches, which is weird for a hotel room. Nonetheless, the pool was great. It was cold, but once you got used to it, it was no big deal. They have a lifeguard on site, which is cool I suppose. There’s also a splash pad across the street, which my kids loved. There’s a playground also, and lots of different eating options within walking distance. The breakfast was alright. It wasn’t anything to brag about, but it fed the family. The WiFi works well, and we didn’t pay for the up charge.
